TTC with 17 month old nursling
Hi all! Looking for some advice or encouragement on TTC with trying to conceive 17 month old toddler boobie monster who feeds roughly 6 snacky feeds a day. I LOVE breastfeeding and want to continue until my LO naturally weans but we are also looking to expand our family. I have had my cycle back since 6 months PP. I have been exclusively breastfeeding the entire time with 1-4 night wakes ups still (send sleepy vibes to LO plz haha!) My cycle averages at 34 days sometimes 36 and has been 29 at points.
I know breastfeeding can suppress ovulation and shorten the luteal phase but I believe I am ovulating with a normal luteal phase (at least similar to my previous cycles pre pregnancy). We have been trying for 2 months for baby #2. We were very blessed and got pregnant first time with this babe.
Thank you for reading. Any comments or advice would be so helpful!
