Healthy As A Mother

#113: Breastfeeding and Trying To Conceive


Listen Later

Trying to get pregnant again while still breastfeeding is something Dr. Morgan gets asked about SO often - so we decided to dedicate a whole episode to the topic. There's a lot to understand about the way lactational physiology differs from fertile or pregnant physiology - and we must understand the hormonal and metabolic interplay to make meaningful and effective changes that can increase our chances of pregnancy while nursing. We hope this clears up some confusion and helps give a guiding path to how you can grow your family while still nursing others- in a healthful way for you AND baby.
