Boobie Trapped

A curve was thrown my way on this ttc journey in the form of prolactin! Perhaps because my mother got knocked up while nursing me and I've seen so many countless women go through it I was sure I would have no trouble. I also thought having a cycle at all had guaranteed my return to full fertility. This was not the case. I am plagued by the dreaded short luteal phase and late ovulation. B6 seemed to help me ovulate a few days early and vitex may eventually help lengthen my LP if it hasn't already ( i made it to 8 days instead of 6 last month) but it still doesn't cut the mustard. I took my son from bein weaned 7 hours a day to weaning him 12 hours a day and I'm hoping that helps me to get pregnant but who knows. I've read that every woman is different. For some it only takes a few tweaks here and there to their nursing schedule. For others it takes full on weaning. I hope I am not the latter. My son has really ramped up his night nursing since I day weaned him and with four big teeth coming in. He nursed up to 8 times a night between the hours of 8pm and 8am. I am very curious to see if the 12 hours has any effect on my cycles. If it doesn't then next month I plan to try the upset method. That's where you try to throw your body for a loop by having at least one night of no nursing at all or very limited nursing. As you can imagine this is not sounding like fun to me but I am willing to try it. I am also willing to try breaking the nursing to sleep association. Again not gonna be fun but totally worth trying. In the end I haven't decided exactly when I will fully wean if nothing works but right now I'm thinking by his second birthday in September. This is only if I am not pregnant however. If I can get pregnant while nursing my little guy I will try hard to meet his needs as best I can. 

In the back of mind are always concerns over my age and my long term fertility. I really hope that taking these extra months before weaning isn't the difference between giving my son a sibling or not. For now I'm trying to stay optimistic that its not and that even if it takes some doing we will get there.
