I haven't read this stat anywhere (and would be appreciateive if anyone has 
a source) but regardless, it is also the case that many children resume 
breastfeeding after weaning given the opportunity. My research into long 
term breastfeeding found that about 20% of the children had weaned at some 
time- sometimes because of pregnancy- and had then restarted.

"Forgive me if I am wrong, but the last I read, about 70% of babies and
toddlers will wean during the pregnancy, usually due to lack of milk, or 
differing
composition, which can effect taste, not to mention increased hunger, if the
baby is dependent on milk for most or all of his food needs. "
