I am posting this for myself. I am looking to get pregnant in the next few months with my second child. My husband and I are very excitied and want to expand our family, but I have serious fears about a supply drop. My daughter is now 13m old and nursing about 4x/day. I work full-time so she nurses whenever she wants when she is with me, more on weekends than during the week. I have continued to try to offer at lunchtime at daycare but she is a busy body and is not interested. She enjoys playing instead. She drinks water all day at daycare and eats table food. She does drink 4-6oz total of soymilk (her personal preferance as we have let her try both soy and cows milk) with snacks at daycare.
I am not ready to wean and I do not think she is ready either. I would feel terrible if I influenced her weaning by having a supply drop in pregnancy. I could start pumping again if you wise women feel that would help. What are your recommendations?
