I am new to this list and don't know if this topic was recently discussed or
not. I need some information regarding epidural anesthesia used during labor
and its latent effects on MER if any. Do the after effects of anestheisia
directly inhibit MER in any way or is the anesthesia completely metabolized
by the time the milk is being produced? (not referring to colostrum). I
studied dental anesthesia in college, but I'm a little rusty. Please list any
articles or sources dealing with this problem.

Thanks,
