Is breast feeding safe during pregnancy?
My sister-in-law just found out she's pregnant again, but she's still breastfeeding her first child. She's asking if it's safe to continue breastfeeding while pregnant.

Yes, it is generally safe to continue breastfeeding, but it can make you feel more tired. Keep up with light walking and gentle exercise to maintain your energy levels, if your doctor permits.

In our family, we suggest eating highly nutritious foods like panjiri and milk if you are feeding one child while carrying another. But if you feel any mild cramping, please stop immediately and ask your doctor.

Actually, it is totally fine for most women, yaar. Just make sure you are eating enough calories because your body is literally doing double duty right now!

My wife managed both and it was exhausting just watching her! It is safe, but be prepared for some nipple sensitivity and a lot of fatigue. Rest as much as possible.
