Is anyone pregnant and still nursing?

6 weeks and same. I cannot stand it anymore. I feel sick all day everyday and breastfeeding takes even more of my energy that I don’t have
@Amanda was it hard stopping? My baby screams and cries when I don’t let her have my boob 😩
@Cat same!!! It’s like draining the little energy I have left lol
I'm glad I wasn't the only one feeling that way. I bf almost 4months into the pregnancy and it became so uncomfortable and almost disgusting. I switched to formula (had to try 4 different one) but it was like my baby knew he wasn't getting enough so he stopped asking for the boob and was suddenly ok with the bottle (refused it for months prior to that)
@Laura yess it literally feels disgusting!! Idk why it’s like that but my baby refuses to give it up and it’s driving me insane
I’m 6 months pregnant and breastfeeding my 15 month old. I have very little supply but he isn’t bothered. I also developed a nursing aversion but it helps if I cover up the rest of myself with a blanket because his touching me made it so much worse. I also only breastfeed him maybe 5-6 times a day now. I think we will make it to tandem nursing. He really loves it and I feel guilty taking it away I guess.
@Deja I’m not gonna lie, yes it was hard. But I finally told my husband he needed to become primary parent for a week and spend most time with him including doing bed time and nap times. That has made a huge difference! Now just a couple days later he only asks me for milk if I’m just in a tshirt no bra because he can smell it, so I have to wear sports bras for the time being which also helps
@Amanda thank you! I noticed she does much better when she’s with my mom or my fiance so I’m going to have to try that for a couple nights because I literally cannot take it anymore lol
@Deja I was honestly surprised at how much easier nighttime was for him when my husband took over. I was expecting much more protest from by toddler
I am in your boat! 12 weeks pregnant with a 15 month old. I officially closed the tab yesterday. It breaks my heart but it no longer became a bonding moment for us, but only turned into me getting mom rage due to hormones. I had to just be done for both of our sakes.
