Codeine and nursing moms -- rare but dangerous side-effect (death ment'd)
That really presumes that they "observe" carefully. I almost died from
inadequate "observation" when I was a teenager. If theyr'e not looking for the right things, all the observation in the world isn't necessarily going to help. absolutely! When we were trying to go home after Ada was born and the suddenly said we had to stay in "for observation", I promptly quizzed them on what observation, which turned out to be no more than what we would have done at home, as in keep an eye on her!

Hahahahahah!!!! Sorry. I ASKED for mine. Peekaboo more than 10 times, I
was done. absolutely, there is a time for every intervention, I don't think Larry can really have meant get rid of episiostomies, they can be necessary for a normal delivery for cases like yours, they are necessary for a forceps delivery, though apparently not for a ventouse, though many doctors still do one.

Codeine and nursing moms -- rare but dangerous side-effect (death ment'd)
Aspirin is recommended for breastfeeding, Hi, lurker butting in here. Aspirin is _not_ recommeded for breast-feeding mothers, as it is contraindicated for children under 16 (can cause Reyes syndrome). We can has paracetomol or ibuprofen, but that's about it! http://www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk/articles...?ArticleId=854 sorry, terrible typos, that was what I meant to say, thus pointing out there were few things that can be used!

"Engram" wrote in message u... I'd go so far as to say don't use ibuprofen if your child is under 6 months old. In Australia ibuprofen is not available in infant pain killers until the child is 6 months old, anyway, so I'd go with not taking it myself while breastfeeding, either, as it does pass into the milk in small doses. It's also counterindicated for use during pregnancy as the effect on the foetus is unknown. Ibuprofen, and other drugs in its class, is also known to carry a higher risk of allergic reaction in individuals with asthma. Although such reactions are said to be rare in children and the risk is higher in adults, I personally don't take ibuprofen or give it to DS as my husband is asthmatic and I'm not sure whether DS is at risk. As asthma is heritable and DS already has eczema, indicating a propensity for allergies, I remain on probably the overly cautious side of things that might affect him. which really does just make Elle's comment of "other over-the-counter type pain remedies without codeine that can be easily substituted" entirely false as it literally leaves paracetamol.
