My 17th month old's BMs have changed since I got pregnant-she still nurses...is it hurting her to still nurse?


I'm in the process of weening her but she's not interested in doing that so it's taken longer than planned. I feel ilke she's had diarrhea for the last 3 weeks. It's like she's pooping newborn breastfed baby poop all over again. I want to know if the pregnancy hormones could be hurting her digestion?

It is not hurting her at all to nurse while you are pregnant. Your milk might taste a little different, but it is totally fine for her. Is it fine for you? Are you getting enough to eat for all 3 of you?
For more information on this, check out the LaLeche League web page. They are very helpful and knowledgable. There are probably meetings in your area.
What ever digestion problems she is having is likely due to something else, maybe something you or she is eating, possibly a food allergy.
Good luck.
