Sarah's post regarding older women wanting to wean at a year because they want to get pregnant again piqued my interest. In the past month I have counseled a few women whose MDs told them that they (a) needed to wean to get pregnant, (b) couldn't get pregnant if they didn't have a menstrual cycle and (c) needed to have weaned for x months before they would be able to get pregnant. Babies are over 6 months and on solids. These MDs are OBs, with one being a fertility specialist. Moms had a hard time believing that they could get pregnant if they were nursing. Does anyone have any good articles I can pass on to these moms? TIA Johanna Berger, LSW Breastfeeding Counselor Bala Cynwyd, PA
