"The half life of the thiocyanate metabolite is approximately 3 days".  Hale 1997

Okay, if that's the case 5 half lives is enough (15 days), but let's get serious here.  I'll bet the
milk levels are undetectable.

This mother should be getting her milk to the baby.

If this is such a big worry, why treat with this sort of medication when there are, after all, only
about 10000 different antihypertensives available?
