I have a mom who is successfully breastfeeding a two month old baby. Mom 
has been advised to have a colonscopy for rectal bleeding, suspicion is 
hemorrhoids, but they are ruling out anything more serious. Her 
gastroenterolgist has advised her to stop breastfeeding for 24 hours 
because of the prep she will be taking - HalfLytely and Biscodyl Tablet  
(PEG-3350, sodium chloride, sodium bicarb. and potassium chloride). Does 
anyone have experience with this med? I've searched the archives and Hale 
and can't find it. If it is not safe, does anyone have a safe alternative? 
Mom would like to avoid interrupting BFing if possible.
Thanks,
Kathy Lilleskov RN IBCLC
