Hi everyone! New here! This question is for nursing moms ttc. My son is 10 months and we've been trying to get pregnant again. This past week my son refuses to nurse. He drinks a little and then gags. He shakes his head back and forth, so I have been giving him formula. Has anyone ever had this? Can being pregnant affect my milk's taste? Or is he just ready to not nurse anymore? I haven't tested yet because af isn't due till 21st-any suggestions?

It's probably a "nursing strike." Babies will sometimes refuse to nurse if they are teething or have a stuffy nose or ear infection. In my experience a 10 month old baby is not likely to refuse the b___st due to pregnancy, especially in very, very early pregnancy.
