My daughter is 11 months old and I have a terrible bacterial infection of the stomach, due to food poisoning. I had a CT today and they told me I would have to do a “pump and dump” for 24 hours. Then the MD came back and told me the only antibiotic I can take that will cover the entire scope of my illness is not recommended with breastfeeding and I would have to quit. Sophie is already drinking whole milk, so that’s not a problem….
Just wondering how to do this? Do I pump in place off for a few days and slowly wean, or do I just quit and take some antihistamines to help dry up?
Thanks…… feeling sad, wanted to do this until she was 1… :(
