BF while pregnant and MS?

Well T_rex, you may find this good news, Last time I threw up about once every day to every couple of days (so not terrible but still there MS) and this time round still BF 3-4 times daily and no throwing up... AT ALL!!! Just a bit nauseous, not hungry, and super sensitive nose is all.

I think its the best way to go, I'm def not weaning until the MS is gone at least and perferrably not till shes 1 as well!

I never thought about it that way either.

With DD I had MS and spewed a bit felt like I was going to die and was really tired.

With DS I was just tired and sometimes felt a bit sick if I hadn't eaten. I fed DD till 18 months so was about 6 ish months pregnant I think.

First time I threw up pretty much at least once a day - for nearly the whole 9 months. And I never got the 2nd trimester energy burst people got

This time, we don't feed that often (anywhere between 2-6 times a day - depending on his mood and the heat) and I've been not nearly as sick - and then generally only when I've got an empty stomach. So I throw up maybe once every few days. Worse if it's really hot.

The first few months I was absolutely exhausted. It was a struggle to get off the couch*. But now that's lifting and I'm feeling better generally - yay!

*not helped by me thoughtlessly going "Hey - you need some cuddles and to settle down - come lay with me for a feed so I can rest too" totally forgetting how many calories that burns and it's not really a rest at all!

I think I'm going to buck the trend and say mine has been worse this time, and I'm still BF although only 2-3times per day (so maybe not enough). My guess is that it would be an individual thing.

Thanks for the bump.

It is so reassuring to hear these comments. I have had no symptoms whatsoever this time around (still feeding at least 10 times a day), whereas I was constantly nauseas all day long with DS.

Well, I'm bucking the trend in that I've been a lot sicker with this one - but can still reassure you that my pregnancies have been SO very different its amazing, but Jacob was fine and healthy and this bubby looked fine at the scan yesterday.

Awww stink Hopes. Sorry to hear you've been feeling dreadful again - I thought you had it bad enough the first time!! Congrats on the girl too - awesome news!!

I agree though, that these pregnancies have been as different as night and day. I'm curious to see how different the babies are (oh please let this one be healthy and fond of sleeping!).

I am much much sicker this time around and I'm bf 4-5 times a day!! So no pregnancy and bf are not going well together for me;( ;( which is a shame cos I wanted to bf till at least 15 months but looks like I'll be stopping much earlier
