TTC while breastfeeding
TLDR: we are ready for baby #2. Is this possible while still breastfeeding?
Trying to understand my body and would really love some input/advice from other breastfeeding moms!
My baby is 10.5 months and breastfeeding like a champ. He’s never had formula and, though he has solids every day, most of his calories still come from milk.
I have an oversupply, so my freezer is still FULL of milk. If I had to stop breastfeeding tomorrow, we could make it at least a couple months on frozen milk (with no increase in solids). That said, I enjoy breastfeeding and would prefer to continue as long as he and I are both benefitting.
My period hasn’t come back yet from what I can tell, but I have a history of PCOS so it’s possible that’s just an “irregular cycle” issue rather than a breastfeeding issue.
So for other breastfeeding moms, did you have to stop breastfeeding to conceive? Any advice/experience very welcome!
