Oooooh – that’s right -  I am pretty sure Medication and Mothers Milk was the book they sent us!  It said that these meds were L1 (safe) drugs for bubs…?

She has been off meds for a few weeks and is breast feeding her little bub, really wants to continue but is not doing too well off the meds and is getting quite scared of a repeat of PND that she had last time. Mimms wasn't greatly helpful apart from discouraging use in lactation and pregnancy - but as she had been using it in pregnancy anyway.... Do any of you have knowledge or experience of this med and effects in B/F? TIA Sue
