Breastfeeding and trying to get pregnant
Although I should have weaned my dd a long time ago, i still bf her at night to go to sleep. its maybe for 5 minutes or so and it is not every night as I am really trying to break her from doing that. I wonder if this will interfere with my chances of getting pregnant?
