Breastfeeding while pregnant: Month two

Month 2: Finding out

Over the last couple of weeks I’ve been having funny twinges in my stomach when I stand up. I’ve also noticed that breastfeeding is becoming painful which is strange: breastfeeding Jay has been entirely straightforward up until now, unlike my first experience – I only managed 3 weeks with D. Jay is 2 years and 9 months and still breastfeeding at bedtime and if he wakes in the night.

 

What it has taken me longer to notice is the fact that my period is 2 weeks late: a quick trip to Boots on Sunday morning has put us clear about the reason for that. I’m pregnant! It now becomes clear why breastfeeding is more painful, I just hope it doesn’t stay like this for long.

    Hi, I just wanted to say the pain doesnt last! although it is a bit uncomfortable. My daughter was only 10 months when I became pregnant with my son, who is now 13 months already. I tandem breastfeed both. Around 4 months into the pregnancy my milk dipped and my daughter started sleeping through the night as obviously the supply was no longer so readily available, however, sadly that phase didnt last! The rest of it is a mixture of great and not so great experiences but all in all definitely worth it. Good luck.
