I had a mom call me with a question that I can't find the answer to in the resources I have. She has a 2+ yo that nurses at least 5-6 times/day. Mom is newly pregnant. No problem, right? Mom went on to say she had 2 mis- carriages (6 wks & 3 mos) before becoming pregnant (with help of clomid) with this child. She was given progesterone through the first trimester to help carry the pregnancy and was able to carry to term. In LLL BF Answer Book it says that one reason one might consider weaning is a history of miscarriage. Is she more at risk if she continues nursing? She doesn't want to tandem nurse so is open to weaning, but doesn't think daughter in normal circumstances would like stopping "cold turkey". What info can I give her?
