40 Weeks Pregnancy
There are many beliefs as far as breast feeding while pregnant is concerned. There are many views on this topic. Some people feel that while one is pregnant breastfeeding can have dire effects on the fetus as most of the nutrients will be taken away.
But this is not entirely true. Many people who have been doing research over this topic suggest that there is no nutritional risk to the fetus and thus there won’t be problems like miscarriage. But there are some exceptions to this and that are mentioned below:
- If the female has the history of premature labor then breast feeding during pregnancy is not considered as a safe thing to do.
- If the uterus contracts due to hormonal changes then one should avoid breast feeding while pregnant.
- If women’s’ uterus is too sensitive to the hormonal changes occurring in the body it is not safe to breastfeed while pregnant.
However, the best thing would be to talk to your doctor in this regards and tell him as to what should be done. You should follow all that your doctor says. However, if you feel unsafe you should discontinue with breastfeeding. It is seen that while when women’s uterus is not that sensitive one can continue with breastfeeding depending upon the need of the hour.

Women feel that whatever choice she makes, she is actually harming her other baby. And this is what makes the choice a controversial one.
