Trying to understand your fertility while you are breastfeeding your toddler is an uphill battle.
Sure - Google abounds with tips & information about conception and contraception, but less so about conception and contraception while you are breastfeeding... and finding support for making sense of those things while you are breastfeeding a TODDLER?! ...virtually impossible.
But, have no fear - your toddler breastfeeding guru is here! [insert Wonder Woman gif]
In this half hour episode I have packed in:
- Considerations for timing your next pregnancy (or not!) and how there might be factors you are unaware of that could be increasing your stress, and impacting your day-to-day breastfeeding with your toddler.
- Tips for supporting your sex-life while breastfeeding
- A simplified breakdown of the menstrual cycle, the hormones involved, AND how they are impacted by breastfeeding.
- What is normal (and what is not) for your period when breastfeeding
- What contraceptive methods are compatible with breastfeeding (and WHY)
- Support to talk about fertility drugs with your doctor (before you decide to wean)
- How to be empowered to understand YOUR body better
- ...and last but not least, how to support your body to move back into fertility while you are breastfeeding.
