My quotes were featured in the CradleWise Blog where I discussed Breastfeeding While Pregnant. Take a read below and let us know what you think about the topic.
“There are not many studies looking at the implications of breastfeeding during pregnancy (BDP); however, of the several studies conducted in developed countries, there is no evidence that healthy women are at a higher risk of miscarriage or preterm delivery if they breastfeed while pregnant.”
-Dr. Nilong Vyas
Is it safe to continue breastfeeding during pregnancy if there's a history or risk of preterm birth?
“Caution is advised if there is a history or an identifiable risk of potential preterm birth if choosing to breastfeed during pregnancy.” But, if there is no risk, breastfeeding is safe to continue during pregnancy.
- Dr. Nilong Vyas
What challenges come with breastfeeding during pregnancy, and how can moms maintain proper nutrition and rest?
“Challenges include maintaining adequate nutritional intake for the mother and appropriate rest. Since many women are breastfeeding longer, there is a likelihood of breastfeeding during the next pregnancy, so it’s best to discuss the decision with your physician to ensure a healthy pregnancy.”

Looking forward to improving your sleep journey.
