Hi all, have just found out am pregnant again and am currently bf 10 mth old dd with no plans to stop! Am clueless about what will happen to my milk now am pregnant, how I will feed dd when have bump and what happens to milk when next LO arrives. Any advice will be welcome. Sure will be posting more on this when LO arrives in 9 mths desperate for advice from tandem feeders!!

Congratulations.
I got pg while bfeeding 11m old. He self-weaned when I was 20w, apparently 2/3 do so (because your milk changes flavour). But if they don't there's no reason why you can't continue to bfeed and then tandem feed. You may find bfeeding sl uncomfy if your nipples get more sensitive (I didn't), and you may find your morning sickness worse (I did). When LO arrives, you get colustrum through, and your supply adapts to the needs of the baby. I'm sure lots of tandems will be along soon.

Have a look on Kellymom.com for masses of info on tandem fedding and feeding while pg. There's everything you'll need to know and more!

Congrats btw .
