Discouraged :(

in March 2012 Moms

I have not been on here in a while but I need a pick me up and you ladies were there while I was pregnant so here goes nothing.

I love breastfeeding my daughter but I also want to make her a big sister. She will be 1 on Monday and I have yet to have the return of my cycle. I know that you can still get pregnant before the first cycle but "trying" just seems pointless. On top of it all I now have a clogged milk duct. It's painful and it sucks. I have to go into the doctor on her birthday now because that was the only time I could get in and have tried everything else to resolve it on my own. I see that some of you have BFP's already and congratulations to you all! Were any of you in my shoes before and have some words of encouragement?

    Read up about it on Kelly Mom... there's some good articles on getting your period back without having to stop BFing. DH and I are going to start TTC #2 next month, and I was getting worried a few months back that I hadn't started my cycle yet. I dropp

    I know you are discouraged, but I just wanted to say good job for making it a year! I know so many that would have loved to of made it a year, but couldn't due to so many different factors. I think the decision is completely up to you when you stop. Even
