Im new here...and finding myself wanting baby #2. I am 18mo pp and have yet to have a period. I have cut down nursing to 2x a day - once in the AM and once before bedtime - and only one side each nurse. I have been doing this for 1 month now. My naturopath says to give this 2 months...then we can test hormones and/or there are some herbs that can help jump start my cycle. Has anyone had experience with this? I was also seeing some posts about acupuncture working?
Im so frustrated. My husband is also getting antsy. It's so hard to wait! Should I be charting to see if I'm ovulating? I was thinking i'd just wait until I saw a period and then start trying - but is there any reason to chart at this point too? Should I know if Im O'ing or not?
I guess I just dont know what else I should be doing. You all seem like you have such great ideas and support. Im the only gal in my circle of mama's who is still nursing - so I dont get a lot of support. My ob says to stop nursing - but that just isnt an option right now. I already cut down from 4x a day both sides..to just 2x a day - one side only each time.
Ah - Im rambling now. I feel alone in this and Im stressing out.
