I want to take one of those energy pills to get some stuff done around my house. How long should I pump and dump to be safe that it doesn't get in my breast milk? I don't know if it does but I have enough frozen milk to feed her and better safe than sorry. I'm thinking of pumping and dumping for at least 2 days.

I guess it is okay but be careful because they make your blood pressure go sky rocket

I was going to saying B-12 works better

I was told never dump because you can use the milk for other things like the bath or lotion .

Agree. You should never dump it. You can use it for other things like conditioner, bath tubs..

I understand you. I get tired easily n house chores shows it especially laundry. I not yet added my other child coming in September that will make my fourth child. I would pump for atleast every two hrs counting the frozen milk. I think medication like that would stay in your system not that long read the label n drink lots of water behind it so it can lave your system quickly.

@katiesmiles1 they were called yellow jackets in my day idk what they're called now but my husband got some before work the other day and he said they worked so I was going to try one. They are black with 3 yellow lines on one end.

@mrslasyone, don't pump and dump save it for milk baths for your little one

Maybe try smoothies like she said. Tell your older kids they need to help with cleaning and throwing out the garbage and things they can do.
