Pregnancy After Caserean, Breastfeeding While Pregnant Posted: 12-30-06 22:38pm


Hello, i have a 5 1/2month old daughter who I am breastfeeding, iwas wondering if anyone knows what is the reccommended time to wait after a cesarean to become pregnant? Also can I continue breastfeeding while pregnant, will it affect my milk for my daughter or harm the unborn baby?

You should ask your doc about when to get pregnant. A nurse at work breastfed one of her children while she was pregnant and then quit about two months before her next baby was born to give her breasts a short break and to let the colostrum build back up so the baby could get the same antibodies.

For c-sections they usually recommend two years, for vaginal birth they recommend one year. If you dont give your body the appropriate time to heal it can be dangerous, or can cause medical problems in the future, one of the major problems with c-sections is uterine rupture. Talk to your dr though hes the best one to speak with on this subject!
