I have a mom that I'm working with undergoing Chemo for Breast Cancer. Baby is 2 1/2 months. She is pumping and dumping b/c meds are L5 and contrindicated for breastfeeding.
The question is: if she maintains lactation through treatment can she breastfeed baby between treatments?
If so How Long to wait until it is safe?
