Subject: infections and bf
hi
i had posted this a few months back w/ no replies. I was checking some
infection info due to moms being told not to bf if they have a fever
over 100.4F. What are your comments on the following recommendations(see
below)? Do you follow these recommendations? Especially primary
providers like doctors and nurse practitioners please respond. What
about the mastitis recommendations?
From 1999, 5th edition, Breastfeeding - a guide for the medical
profession by Ruth Lawrence MD, table E-1 p. 869:
Breast abscess - discontinue ebm x 24 hrs after surgery; no bf x 24 hrs
Endometritis/PID for group B strep - bf ok after 24 hrs of therapy; ebm
ok.
Haemophilus influenzae - bf after 24 hrs on therapy; may give ebm
Mastitis - staph A - bf after 24 hrs of therapy; discard milk x 24 hrs
Mastitis - group A strep - same as above
thanks,
