i was bf my 8-month old and became pregnant. i researched like crazy and found that it IS safe to still bf during pregnancy; you need to take extra care to eat whenever you are hungry though, and get extra fluids and rest. good luck to you! i ended up m/c at 5 weeks due to plain bad luck, but am trying to get pg again soon (and i still plan to continue bf-ing!). the la leche league's website had some good info on it. you might want to check it out.
