I would be giving formula as milk is an important part of a baby's diet, but only once fully weaned. It doesn't have to be in a bottle either. If they will take in a cup or something that is great! My DD weaned at 19 months while I was pregnant, we started giving her goats milk as she has an intolerance to cows milk. If she was under 1 we would have been introducing formula into her diet.

Plunket line would be another good source of info. ]]> Tue, 03 Jan 2012 20:35:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41259&PID=1419917&title=breastfeeding-while-pregnant-help#1419917 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41259&PID=1419669&title=breastfeeding-while-pregnant-help#1419669 Author: Grifanz

Hi islandgirl,
I was bf my son until he was 20months. He was only having one feed before bed and I decided to stop as I was pregnant and I was picking up every little bug he had (he liked to keep his fingers in my mouth) unfortunately that pregnancy didn't end well.

I do know of lots of babies who self wean themselves earlier than 12 months and were never really interested in the milk around that same age.

Also I did read that your milk changes taste when you're pregnant and often babies do go off the taste.

You could try a small quantity of formula to see if she likes it. My son never like formula, but enjoys cold whole milk now.

Sorry I couldn't help with many tips.

Hi, I'm 12 weeks pregnant and still BF my (near) 11 month old. She's just dropped her middle of the day feed, so is not on to two. But she seems to want to drop her last feed of the night.... does anyone know if I should try and give her formula at night (or even during the day) to keep up her vitamins? She has about 4-500g of food 3x a day + snacks in between... but she's just not really into the milk drinking anymore.

Did anyone else experience this when they got pregnant? Any tips/tricks you found worked?? Thanks in advance!!!!]]> Mon, 02 Jan 2012 13:54:55 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41259&PID=1419554&title=breastfeeding-while-pregnant-help#1419554
