“How to be pregnant while breastfeeding” refers to the process of conceiving and carrying a child while continuing to nurse an existing infant. This practice, also known as tandem nursing, has been observed in cultures worldwide for centuries.
Tandem nursing offers benefits both to mother and children. It can provide nutritional support to the nursing infant, enhance the bond between siblings, and extend the protective effects of breastfeeding. Historically, tandem nursing was essential in societies where breastfeeding was the primary source of infant nutrition and birth control was limited.
