I am a nurse and retired now, but I can tell you that anything you ingest into your body goes directly through your breast milk and into your baby. I do mean anything!

THE NURSE IS ABOULUTILY 100% CORRECT!! HAVE YOU EVER NOTICED THAT MAYBE IF YOU EAT SOMETHING SPICY AND CONTINUE TO NURSE YOUR BABY THAT MAYBE THE NEXT DAY THAT HE/SHE IS A LITTLE FUSSY? THAT IS BECAUSE AN INFANT STOMACH CANNOT TOLORATE THE CHANGE SO WHAT HAPPENS? THEY GET A BELLYACHE. IF YOU OR SOMEONE THAT YOU KNOW IS OR ARE PLANNING TO TAKE "SPEED PILLS" AND IS BREAST FEEDING A LIL ANGEL THEN YOU REALLY NEED TO THINK TWICE, BECAUSE IF SHE IS DOING IT TO LOSE WEIGHT,BREAST FEEDING HELPS YOU TO LOSE SOME WEIGHT. AND JUST REMEMBER THAT AS PARENTS WE HAVE THE CHOICE, OUR INFANTS DO NOT, SO EITHER MAKE A CHOICE STOP NURSING AND TAKE THE "PILLS" OR KEEP NURSING AND DON'T TAKE THEM. THE LONG TERM AFFECT ON THAT CHILD COULD BE DETRIMENTAL!!
I HOPE THE BEST FOR YOU AND YOURS! ALSO ASK YOUR DOCTOR OR CALLTHE LOCAL HOSPITIAL TO TALK TO A NURSE ON DUTY. GOOD LUCK AND ENJOY IT WHILE HE/SHE'S STILL LITTLE THEY GROW FAST. DANI
