I suggested: >>(I've never seen this anywhere but I wonder if only offering one side per >>nursing might slightly improve the odds of conceiving.) Lisa responded: >Sorry I'm not following, please explain why this might be effective? It was just speculation, based on the connection between good milk supply and low fertility. (I know there are a zillion exceptions. But in general there's a connection, which was what I had just been saying in my post.) Since mothers are sometimes encouraged to offer both breasts to boost milk supply, and since some toddlers do their own version of switch nursing (those with tolerant mothers!), I thought there might be a relationship. As I said in my post, any improvement in fertility resulting from this change would be slight. But sometimes a marginal improvement is all you need to conceive.
