Mother delivered a 2850g baby boy yesterday (39 weeks).  At 32 weeks she was
diagnosed with a thrombosis in her leg and since then she has been injecting
herself daily with Clexane (enoxaparin) 40 mg. OB has said that if she was
not breastfeeding she could take an oral medication, but as she is
breastfeeding she should continue with the injectable for the next six
weeks.  I can't find anything on this drug during breastfeeding, but perhaps
it is similar to Heparin?  Can anyone (Dr Tom?) enlighten me?  Thanks if you
can help.
