Is it Safe to Breastfeed during Pregnancy
Is it really safe to breastfeed while pregnant? Or it must be a No!. Well, I'll share to you my experience when I was pregnant with my second son. My eldest was two years old that time and I am still breastfeeding him when I found out that I am pregnant. At first I didn't mind breastfeeding him while pregnant until a family member told me that my baby in my tummy will not get enough nutrients because I am still breastfeeding my eldest son. I doubted but still I continue to breastfeed him because we're EBF (exclusive breastfeeding) ever since and I knew that my pregnancy is not risky. I also consulted my doctor about it. She said my pregnancy was all normal so I can continue breastfeeding him. He just stopped breastfeeding at me when I gave birth to his younger brother. By God's grace I delivered safetly my youngest via Normal Delivery last September 3, 2019. Now he's 10 months old already and he is very healthy. My Eldest son is now three years old.

It's weird to breastfeed a child for 2 years... Haven't heard of this for a long time.
Maybe it is weird for others but I swear it's worth it. 😊 I even saw someone breastfeeding their 5yr old daughter🤭
😂😂
I think 5 years old is weird, about two years is fine. It can help avoid allergies if the child eats nothing else but I cannot say it makes you and your breast look better.
There are adult men who love to be breastfeeding. ..
It's the first time I hear it can harm pregnancy. My first one I was breastfeeding and kept doing it. My second one was born too early and I used a breast pump to deliver the milk at the hospital (to find put they gave it to each premature except mine). I went on a holiday and used the pimp and my eldest drank the milk and once back home I delivered it at the hospital again for those times I couldn't feed it. It's given to cancer patients too. They say it can cure some kinds of cancer but it's forbidden by now.
In our country people mostly believe on beliefs or myths that's why some says it can harm the baby inside the womb. I even do the researched and it's okay to breastfeed while pregnant as long as your pregnancy is not high risk.
