If you were breastfeeding while TTC how long did it take you to get pregnant? Also if you got pregnant did you continue to breastfeed, and for how long into the pregnancy? Thanks in advance ladies!

We conceived DD2 two weeks after I weaned DD1. It was our fourth month trying and first cycle post weaning. I'd have liked to have continued nursing but DD was ready.

Following this. I only got my cycle back at 23 month, once we were down to one feed. She is super attached to bedime boob, so I'm really hoping I don't have to drop it to get pregnant.

I was still BFing when TTC #2 and it took me about 9 months. But #1 did take a year so I wasn't surprised. We were down to about t2x a day then. I weaned her about 4m into the pregnancy.
