Hi Michelle

If you are interested in finding out whether medications will affect breatfeeding etc, and your neuro can't provide that info try a genetic counselling service. Not sure what state you are in, but in Victoria, the VCGS (Victorian Clinical Genetics Service) at the RCH (Royal Children's Hospital) have people who can offer advise on medications and pregnancy/breastfeeding.

There is also the Drug Info Centre (not sure where they are located) which is a free service. Ph number is (03) 95942361 mon-fri 9am-5pm. If you are not in Victoria, i'm sure they could help anyway or give you details for a place in your area. I spoke to a lovely man, who said that he was quite non-conservative (i can't think of proper word) in terms of drugs and breastfeeding. Some times the manufacturers of drugs say not to breastfeed, just to cover themselves when they have no reason that the drug is getting through or could affect baby. I can give you e-mail details and his name, if you are interested.

Take care,

Kate
