Pregnant and still B/F another baby?

Is anyone pregnant and still b/f another baby? If so, how is it affecting your milk supply?

I'm 7.5 weeks with #3. #2 is 11 months old and I plan to b/f him until he is year and I have at least 2-3 weeks of breastmilk in my freezer so if I lose my supply, I can just defrost and bottle feed. He is already getting one of those bottles per day as I dropped a feeding this past weekend. So, I'm not too worried but have noticed that I am less full and I always pump before I go to bed and the past week I've been pumping about 3 ounces less than normal. TIA!

I BF DD 1 right up until DS was born (against the advice of my OB, I might add). I definitely noticed by supply decreased but I wasn't pumping at that point and DD was also nursing less than she had been, so I'm not really sure how much it decreased. I seemed to almost (or maybe even completely) dry up by half way through my pregnancy, which I read is what often happens. DD was really comfort nursing and didn't seem to mind unfortunately! I was hoping she'd wean on her own but no such luck.

Sorry I'm not of more help. I know my supply slowly went down but I have no idea at what rate since I had no way of measuring it.

I was only 4.5 mths post pg when I got pregnant with my second. I was able to ebf to 7 mths before I had to supplement with formula. At 9 mths, nothing was coming out and I could no longer nurse.

I BF my DS but only until I was about 3 months pregnant. I am not positive I noticed a drop since we were only down to 1 boob 2x a day but I do think it drepped a little. My SIL BF until 2 months after her DS was born
