I've just been through surgery an heavy narcotics. I know i can't give my baby my breast milk to…

It is good for their skin especially cradle cap 😀

People freeze it and save it for baths or rashes, plus there's a ton of sights that make keepsake jewelry out of it. Are you positive you can use it though? A lot of meds are safe and they give narcotics to women who are breastfeeding for a number of reasons

My doctor said the anesthesia an pain meds could sedate the baby. it's generally safe but I don't want to make her sleepy or sedated. I have pumped breast milk that she's drinking now though. I just dont want to throw away the new breast milk @cubanese

I heard I could use it for a milk bath too.! thank you :) I think she's getting cradle cap too @cbass102513

Yeah its safe to give I just feel anxious about it making her sedated. I've been through anesthesia, fentanal pain meds, morphine, percocet, an oxycodone. which I've all been given through pregnancy . but I'm still scared @brbsmomma

I totally get that! If you have enough stashed then I would totally save it, or even dilute the fresh with the stash if you don't have enough or don't want to completely deplete your back up. Making stuff is cool too, so many uses for that liquid gold😊

Yeah my doctor gave me the ok to still breast feed I'm just hesitant @cubanese

I'll probably end up diluting it so she'll probably feel no effects @brbsmomma

don't worry I would never throw away my milk just want to find other uses @cubanese

milk baths for skin but also u don't have to pump and dump if u just don't pump or use the milk in the 24 hrs in your body the meds won't be in there..

I know that might kill ur boobs but it's an option

@aliakr, I used my milk after having coffee for his cradle cap and it helped (then used a soft toothbrush to brush the scales). I also used it in my own bath for my dry skin and it helped!
