I feel so defeated. I got a UTI and I have tried getting rid of it on my own for 4 days now and it's only getting worse. So I called my doctor so I could get an antibiotic to help clear it up. Well this antibiotic called nitrofurantoin says I won't be able to breastfeed for 10 days while taking it. Which means I'll have to give her Formula for 10 days and I'll have to pump while she's off my boob. I am so fearful that she will get used to a bottle and wean off of me. I am seriously in tears about this.

Most doctors will tell you to pump and dump because they don't know. Call infantrisk for verification and alternative , edications

When I have them they tell me not to drink anything but cranberry juice and use the bathroom every time I have the urge to. Try drinking some more and then if that doesn't help see if you can get a different prescription.

Did you ask them about antibiotics that are safe for breastfeeding? They show be able to switch them.
