I have recently gotten a call from an expectant mom who works an a Nuclear Medicine Tech in the Air Force. She has been doing other duties during her pregnancy but will have to return to working directly with 5 - 7 patients per day while they are being given radioactive substances in preparation for testing. She wonders if breastfeeding will be possible after returning to work or if there would be a danger for the baby due to her closeness to radioactive materials. Has anyone got an answer for her?
