My first one is still nursing and i just found out im pregnant again. He is not even 1.5 yet and not ready to stop. Do i need to wean him now or can i continue for some time? So confused what is right.
With my second I slowly weaned the first one as my milk supply changed anyway during pregnancy. Many kids self wean because taste changes. There is no fixed rule, but if you feel cramping while feeding, mention it to your doctor.
This one really needs your doctor advice. If your pregnancy is normal, feeding can often continue, but if you have any risk like contractions or bleeding history, they may ask you to stop. Dont decide this alone, talk to your gynac.
I understand this is a tender decision, you dont want to suddenly stop with your little one. In a healthy pregnancy many can continue, but please let your doctor guide based on your case. Be gentle with yourself through the change.
I actually continued feeding my older one for a while into my next pregnancy, it was okay in my case. Many women do tandem feeding. But its very individual, so please run it by your doctor before deciding.
