| Breastfeeding Mom with Stomach Flu
Hi,
I have been exclusively breastfeeding my baby, who is just 5 months.
I must have eaten something wrong over the weekend, as I have had stomach flu for the past few days, with cramping and mild diarrhea...
I think it is ok to continue breastfeeding, as my baby seems not to have been affected at all by whatever I ate... yet my stomach is really bothering me...
I would normally take some over the counter medicine, like Imodium or Gelusil, yet not sure it is ok? It seems like it is safe, yet not sure what have been other breastfeeding mom's experience? |
