antibiotics and nursing mothers

I will soon be nursing my second child, I'm due any day and I have chronic hypertension. You should already be taking a pregnancy safe medication for hypertension and if what you're taking now is not safe for nursing, then your doctor will change your meds after you have rhe baby.

I got really sick and lost weight and then before I had a chance to heal up I was busy packing up boxes and moving them. I want to continue to breastfeed my baby but since all of that wear and tear on my body my milk supply is almost non-existent.

I started full time college classes when my son was 6 months old. I was in a nursing program so classes were on campus and clinical were at any one of five medical facilities within an hour's drive. My brother watched my son one day a week, my bf changed his work schedule to be able to stay home with him one day a week, and he went to an in-home daycare the rest of the week. I was in school for 2.5 years, just graduated in December having earned my degree as an RN.

Here are some tips that have proven helpful to other mothers (both in and out of the military) in maintaining and boosting their milk supply: Breastfeed often and exclusively (no bottles or pacifiers) when off duty and at home. This includes evenings, nights, and weekends. Remember: When my baby is with me, he gets the breast. When he is at daycare, he gets the bottle.

I had this problem with my left breast because of constant pain/blister from the baby not latching on correctly. Once it healed I tried nursing again and mine went back up.

Just nursing whenever baby wants it, and eating well and staying hydrated. Your body will continue to make it as long as you need it! If you want you can get mothers milk tea. But you should be fine without it too.

Its only been a week, usually the minimum time (that I've heard) it taking for your milk to dry up is 2 weeks (and that is really fast). Of course you're really not supposed to touch your boobs at all or even take warm showers to help 'dry up'. Idk about you but I couldn't imagine not using it if I had it, not all women get that lucky. (Personally I'm going to donate my pumped milk, they use it for preemies and sick babies whose mothers can't produce enough milk.

All these data concern prevention of intrauterine and perinatal transmission in mothers with HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis and/or high titers of HBV DNA. Some questions arise regarding breastfeeding in cases of chronic hepatitis B. Firstly, most studies that have been concerned with vertical or early childhood transmission have not reported breastfeeding rates, or if they have, the data are still the subject of debate.

Babies born to mothers that are HIV positive. Babies that are nursing on mothers that are HIV positive. That is your risks.

He got well from that but then again after stopping the antibiotics he got URI and again had to go on antibiotics. He is off the antibiotics this time for about the last 5 days.

It is not known whether lisinopril is excreted in breast milk. SIDE EFFECTS: First doses of lisinopril can cause dizziness due to a drop in blood pressure. Lisinopril can cause nausea, headaches, anxiety, insomnia, drowsiness, nasal congestion and sexual dysfunction. Lisinopril should be stopped if there are symptoms or signs of an allergic reaction including feelings of swelling of the face, lips, tongue or throat. Severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis) and hives occasionally occur.

Among babies nursed by HIV infected mothers, only about 10-15% catch HIV; and typically it takes 6 months before they become infected -- all the time swallowing several ounces of milk ever day. Given that low infectiousness, what can the risk possibly be through exposure to a drop or two? The fact is that breast milk has never once been implicated as the source of sexually acquired HIV, or of a new HIV infection in any human being except nursing babies.

Are you nursing the babies? I had an infection while nursing my youngest and as I remember (he is now 13 years old), you need to make sure to keep the milk flowing....pump that breast every few hours and nurse off the other side until it feels less sore. The antibiotics should take care of it I would imaging. If you can call a nurse hotline, or speak to a nurse at the hospital it would probably be a good idea! Congrats on your twins!

It is resistant to many antibiotics and is becoming more difficult to treat. Anyone in the general public can have the bacteria and pass it on. It could infect your Lungs during a bronchitis bout, in fact it does happen. You could get your Doctor to do a swab test of your nostrils to see if the bacteria is present. It can turn very nasty and cause pneumonia.
