Just looking for support - giardia and breastfeeding

[onthefly]

Well, the first priority is obviously getting well. Pumping and dumping is pretty **** at the best of times, so I think you'd have to be realistic about whether it's even feasible for you right now.
If you haven't already double checked about the medication, it really is worth doing so.
As others have said, it is also entirely possible to stop for a week and then go back to it, though it will depend how the both of you feel about that. Do you have help with the kids at the moment? That seems a greater priority right now.
Take care and hope you're better soon.

DH is going to try and get time at home this weekend, and I have great girlfriends as backup.

I never even thought it a possibility to return to it.....wow. Why does that seem so monumental right this second? THANK YOU!!!

Cultures will be back in a couple of days. Will give Monash a call tomorrow. I also have an awesome pharmacist so will have a chat to him.

Thanks again girls.

My eldest is another who had a circumstantial break from breastfeeding and returned, she spent a week at the beach with my parents and didn't seem deterred when she returned, we continued on for another 6 months or something after that

I hope Rodney has some good news for you though, he has always been really helpful when I've called.
