Quoting tandem mama:“ haha. My oldest (Lydia) was obsessed with my nipples while I was pregnant because she didn't like ... [snip!] ... She's fully nursing 3-5x a day now that I have milk. I'd say just follow her lead and if she wants to nurse again, go for it!”
Quoting HippieBabie EBFT:“ I'm trying to nurse through this pregnancy. The beginning was really tough. I would get tired and irritable ... [snip!] ... guilty, but my milk supply has dropped a lot. I hope to make it the whole pregnancy and tandem nurse when my new LO arrives!”
Quoting friendlygirl626:“ I think this is a great idea. I nursed my son through my entire pregnancy with my 4th and tandem nursed ... [snip!] ... my daughter full time and my son still sometimes, but mostly at night. I plan to tandem nurse once this baby is born also. ”
Quoting communist daughter EBFB:“ I mixed fed my first child through out the first 8 months of his life, ultimately at 8 months...due to ... [snip!] ... in my watched topics as you ladies could probably offer advice as to keeping a supply up for my EBF newborn and for my toddler!”
Quoting Garcia Momma EBFB!:“ Aww that is so sweet!!! That kinda made me tear up, Did you ever take a picture of it for keepsakes?? ... [snip!] ... What about when the baby is born... do you have colustrum of is it milk... these are questions i have always wondered.”
Quoting Sherry + 2:“ Thanks! Did anyone give you a hard time about it? I have a feeling my inlaws may be a little put off by it.”
Quoting friendlygirl626:“ I can answer some of these from my experience. My milk supply tends to drop a bit during the first ... [snip!] ... problems at all or have any more contractions then the normal braxton hicks type that I have had with every pregnancy. ”
Quoting tandem mama:“ I'm just getting comfortable with my parents knowing that Lydia nurses because they said it was weird ... [snip!] ... it was weird when my aunt let her kids self wean. My mother in law nursed my DH til he was nearly 3 so she's super supportive.”
Quoting tandem mama:“ I felt guilty a lot when my milk changed. I thought Lydia was weaning, but she went back to it. During ... [snip!] ... for me being pregnant. But, I figured if she REALLY wanted it, she'd nurse. She went back to the breast though thankfully!!”
Quoting Sherry + 2:“ Thats awesome. I'm not one to care what others think so long as I know I'm doing the best for my babies. ... [snip!] ... the best for my babies. I just hate that I know it's going to be brought up. Like they are questioning my parenting skills.”
Quoting tandem mama:“ It really interests me how differently bodies react to the hormones. I had an increase in my milk ... [snip!] ... drink a few times a month until my mature milk came in. Then she would nurse a couple times a week and now it's 3-5x a day. ”
Quoting friendlygirl626:“ That is so cute...a bug and pickels. Johnathon was only 3 months old when I got pregnant with Emma and ... [snip!] ... can't see taking his comfort away from him. I am just going to play it by ear and see how it goes and do what feels right. ”I really think (but don't know for sure) that the milk changes depending on your older nursling's needs as well. While your body does eventually try to wean them, I think the more they need it the longer it will wait to change. My oldest was 21 months when I got pregnant. There is a mom on here who I'm hoping will join this thread who is nursing her 21/22 month old twins (i'm not sure their exact age, but around there) and her newborn.
