K.,
Way to go AP! I, like you got pregnant while my daughter was still nursing. She was older (a bit over 18 mo), but still nursing through the night and often. I found that sometimes having her sleep between my husband and the wall helped, but not always. I also figured out that she was really hungry in the middle of the night. For about a week I would get up and make her a bowl of oatmeal in the middle of the night and then we started doing it at bed time and, yes, there was some crying (but as an ap mom, I feel there is a difference between a baby crying in your arms and leaving a baby to cry alone). We nursed through the whole pregnancy (and afterward) and by the end she only nursed about a minute every few days. I really am glad that it worked out the way it did, and I think it made new baby transition easier, but I do realize that is not what is right for every nursing couple. I guess you just follow what your child shows she needs and what you need (I know I, for one, needed to not nurse at night at all, evenings were kind of iffy). I also found that getting nursing in when it was okay with me or even just cuddle time and real attention (which I know is harder with two kids) helped with not nursing all night. I really liked the book Adventures in Tandem Nursing, I have no passages for you, but it was like a support group in a book for me!
