Breastfeeding Question Posted: 12-04-06 11:20am
.I am not
pregnant again. Just making that
known.
okay, with that said!
if you are breastfeeding a child when
you're pregnant with a second, would your
doctor make you stop nursing near the end?
I ask because I know nipple stimulation
can bring on contractions. Would a doctor
be concerned about breastfeeding bringing
on early labor?
These are the things I think about when
it's 2am and I can't sleep...

I asked my midwife this question and and
she told me that you wouldn't have to stop
breastfeeding as you would only go into
labour when you were ready to. Nipple
stimulation would not bring on a labour
that wasn't due to start anyway. Also,
the milk would change back to colostrum
for the new baby so the older child may go
off the taste of it but if not, it would
not affect the feeding of the new baby.
That's what she told me anyway so I assume
it's correct!
