Well, in his defense, if he'd had his way we'd have been done 3 kids ago.

Oh gosh, I'm not sure how many kids you have but I thought this sweet little girl was #3?

Skip a day, then start alternating days so you're taking it every other day for a few days, then every 2 days, etc. Once you're taking it once a week, you can stop.

Thank you, I skipped it yesterday so I'll take it today!

Atomic, one more Q while you are here. I was wondering about the connection between pregnancy and progesterone. I read somewhere on the forum that you should get it checked when you fall prego if breastfeeding regularly.
I'm so worried my next little one won't get enough.. especially fluids, so I'm thinking of weaning.. and I'm scared of the progesterone issue.

We have 5 kids, a 20 year old son and a 17 year old son, and then I got baby fever all over again and DH kindly consented to one, possibly two more kids (aka DS 3 (age 4) and 4 (agew 2)!). This little girl is totally a bonus baby!!

i wouldn't worry about the progesterone unless you're having super short cycles.

I've gotten pg twice now while nursing with no problems at all (one was before I even got AF!!) and then I've nursed twice throughout pregnancy. I breastfed quite a lot when I was pg with DS 4 and he weighed 8 lbs! You just have to be sure to eat a lot and it will be fine.

I went pee tonight and wiped a bit of blood! Not sure if it's implantation bleeding, but it made me happy to see! LOL
