Since there are some new ladies here, i'll
try again. Anyone breastfeeding? I'm
curious about birth control for
breastfeeding moms.

They say its breastfeeding is great
birthcontrol, not true my best friend was
strictly breastfeeding (no bottles) her
daughter was 8 months old when she got
pregnant again.

I've never believed that. I have done
nfp, had an iud, and am now on the mini
pill. Just wondering about other
alternatives. My daughter is 9 months
old, so i'm almost done anyway. Just
getting nervous because I got pregnant
with my second baby when my first was 11
months. It's getting close.

Using a pump? Or really breastfeeding?
And do you know what type of formula
you're gonna use yet?

Do you
know?? |
you will have plenty of milk in the
beginning. Pump some and store it in
breastmilk bags in the freezer. Baby
will still have breastmilk when you're not
home. You can still nurse and daddy can
still feed too. Or pump and hand him a
fresh bottle of milk to give the baby.

friends sister had a baby and she couldnt
breastfeed b/c hers were peirced. I
would ask the doc!
