I did for the first trimester but didnt want to tandem nurse when the new baby got here. My daughter was only eating once a day so it made it easy.

My cousin was but her doctor told her she needs to stop because she is losing weight fast due to lack of nutrients but if you are gaining weight and not feeling weak you should be fine.

I was in the beginning. my plan was to continue. my midwife said the only thing to watch for is that it causes your uterus to contract (that's why it helps women after birth and why people use nipple stimulation to bring contractions). we were only doing one feeding a day on weekdays, three or so on weekends. when I found out I was having twins I weaned him because I worried about miscarriage and I knew I wouldn't be able to tandem feed him and the twins. it was a nice 15 months though...
