Bf 9mo and 12 weeks preg - anyone else? Looking for supply info

Just wondering if anyone else has been preg with a still young babe and how their supply went. Obviously I'm going to need to tandem feed, that's not a prob, just wondering how other people's supply went while they were preg. I've not had any probs so far at 12 weeks - in fact he's been having a 3-4 hour stretch at night lately. He's an extremely frequent feeder anyway, so that's a nice break!

I am feeding ds2 and 10 weeks pg although ds2 is 14 months he's still a frequent feeder and has chicken pox at the moment so hasn't been eating just having milk from me and I have had no problems with supply.

Fell pg with ds2 when ds1 was 7 months and had no problems with supply there either although he stopped at 11.5 months, midwife said was probably cos the flavour of milk had changed due to hormones.

I think it varies quite a bit from person to person.

I'm 12 weeks the same as you jaynz, and still feeding a 2.1 yr old. Don't think my supply has been affected yet, but it's more common during 2nd and 3rd trimesters I think. Dd is also a very frequent feeder (but only during the day), so she won't be happy if my supply does diminish!
