I am feeling really proud of myself... I was never sure whether I"d stick it out this far with BFing. And now nearly 20 months down the track and 16 weeks pregnant we are still going strong!:great

DD's feeding has settled down to 2x per day and 2x per night... I feel good about that. I also feel confident about tandem feeding if Z chooses to continue feeding when/if my supply drops or changes taste.

I love BFing... its such an awesome thing. Even tho we've had some soreness with the pregnancy it hasn't been unbearable and I haven't had any aversions to her feeding.

Z loves Booby so much that she claps her hands and says 'yay' when I agree that it is booby time :2lol

That's awesome :)

Brock is also 20mths and still breastfeeding I couldn't imagine being pregnant again as well as breastfeeding so you are doing awesome.

Feeding during pregnancy can be difficult. Good on you! I breastfed through most of my subsequent pregnancies (had 6 children in 9 years) and tandem fed a little bit.

You should be proud of yourself! Take care. x

Great news! Hope things keep going this well for you. I'm a bit envious, I can't get pregnant while bf'ing and my second two both self-weaned before that age anyway. Must be lovely to breastfeed a little one who can actually say thankyou :)

Good on you! I tandem fed my older two fot two years before DS self weaned. I was sad when he weaned but relieved that it was his decision. :D
