Breastfeeding and trying for another baby again?
Moms, did any of you get pregnant intentionally while breastfeeding? I’m really torn. My baby is almost 1 and we want to start trying for another baby again soon, BUT, I still don’t have a period.. no sign of it either. I’m worried I won’t be able to get pregnant & we’ve been exclusively nursing for the past 8 months. I looked it up and it said bf can delay ovulation even up to 2-4 years after breastfeeding and I don’t plan to stop nursing either.. I was hoping I could continue to even if I became pregnant if my baby wanted to.. anyone have any advice or any experience with this? I just keep stressing about it and I’m worried I won’t be able to get pregnant again.

That is soo amazing! That’s what I hope to do. I would love to even tandem feed! How often were you nursing when you became pregnant?
i pregnant while ebf when i was 3 months pp, i never got a period
Just because you dont have a period doesnt mean you arent ovulating JUST so you know lol but you will get your period back eventually. But you cant force what your body isnt ready to do yet
