    Spider Bites on mum - affect bub?

    Im pretty sure ive been bitten on my leg this afternoon & its quite sore & inflamed right now. Ive had a slight allergic reaction previously when i was stung by something.
    Just wanted to check that this bite shouldnt affect bub through me in anyway? Are there any antihistamines safe to take while breastfeeding?

    Hmm not sure, perhaps ring the parent help line and see if they can help? I think he will be fine though
