@megz I wouldn't stop breastfeeding it's the best for your bubba

Dont give formula tho hun u can continue feeding just keep feeding and follow her lead.like they always say if she has plenty o dirty wet nappies thats fine.. and she may be feesing that much to replace fluids wich is very good x

Are breast milk has probotics which is good bacteria that helps us to stay healthy when. We take antibiotics it knocks it down hence why it messes with baby gut and cause discomfort for baby xx

f taking antibiotics while breastfeeding, you may notice your baby becomes temporarily a bit more unsettled with colic like symptoms. This does not require any treatment and should resolve soon after the antibiotics are finished. Your baby’s poos and temperament temporarily changing are not serious and don’t mean you should cease breastfeeding or the antibiotic course, or pump or dump your milk while taking antibiotics. Anecdotally, some mothers have found that their antibiotic use can set up some signs of secondary lactose intolerance in their baby. This is possible since anything that causes gut irritation (such as antibiotic use by its effect on gut flora) has the potential to cause secondary lactose intolerance. Once the antibiotic course has finished and with continued breastfeeding, the gut will return to normal.

If you need to take antibiotics while breastfeeding, you may notice that your baby has runnier poos than usual and that her poos may be more of a green colour. This does not require any treatment and should resolve soon after you’ve finished taking the antibiotics.
