Hi,

Anyone that has become pregnant whilst breastfeeding, did you find pregnancy symptoms were stronger and appeared very soon after conception?

Thanks

Nope my symptoms were less. Test didn't show positive until a week after I was due on and boobs didn't hurt/no real symptoms until sickness kicked in about 7 weeks.
With my first 2 I wasn't breastfeeding and boobs started hurting around when I was due on and test was positive straight away.

Hi, I’ve just found out I’m about 6 weeks pregnant whilst breastfeeding DS 9mo.
My symptoms started earlier but are probably less intense than with my first, so far anyway.
Tested when my period was a week late and got a negative, did another test when 2weeks late and got a definite positve on clear blue digital test

Ah thank you! That's interesting that you both say symptoms were less intense...

I'm waiting to test at end of week but I have felt so bad since I think I ovulated. Extreme exhaustion, body aches, intense hot flashes, bloating and nausea has kicked in...pretty much feel how I did last pregnancy but worse so wondered if it was due to still pregnancy feeding..

Will see what this week brings! Thanks x
