Hi there ladies,
Just thought i would post a follow up thread from my ones i have posted recently. I did another pg test today and bingo..the word 'pregnant' was very clear

. Think i am starting to get used to the idea now and starting to stop feeling guilty about my 8 month old DS. However i am still breastfeeding him and am considering weaning him as i have heard that i will practically be giving all my nutrients away and dont want to comprise growth of bub. Hope this doesnt sound silly. Plus nipples hurt when feeding a bit.
One last little question..does anyone know why i would have spotted only 2-3 days after b'ding?
Cheers.

Congrats! You can continue breastfeeding while pregnant. Bubs will get nutrients first and then it will go to your milk so if you do continue just make sure you have enough left over for yourself.

Completely safe to BF while pregnant I'm nearly 22 weeks and still BF my son. Have a look at the link below, very useful. Anyone who tells you apart from your OB or midwife that BF in pregnancy is bad doesn't have up to date info, this can sometimes include GP's unfortunately!

Congratulations! yay, that's exciting!

Just wondering if you have any symptoms, or if you just had an inkling so you tested and thats how you knew??

Hi there Litte1,

Looking back now i probably had a few symptoms. I only did the test because i was late for monthlys. However just after i ovulated (i think) i spotted which i never do but people told me it was way to early to be implantation bleeding so i still dont know why i did. Also over the last week i felt a little off sometimes when eating but it passed quickly. Also my nails all of a sudden became really strong instead of breaking off. So they are just a few symptoms i have had. And now i feel a little nauseated.
