     To the Wise Ones:

     Hello, I am posting for the first time!  I have been reading and
     learning for several months.  This is a wonderful way to learn. I am a
     RNC, CLC in a O.B. Unit.  We have a LDRP Unit.  I am the only full
     time L.C., and have 2 partime lactation educators that also help.  My
     training is from the UCLA Lactation Educator and Lactation Consultant
     Program.  About 75%-85% of our Mothers breastfeed so we are busy.
     My question concerns Vifipaque 350, a dye used for an IVP.  The
     patient is breastfeeding a premie, who is now about 4 weeks old.  The
     Mom says the X-ray Dept. told her not to breastfeed for 24 hr. past
     the dose.  I can not find any info, however the tech did tell me that
     this is the same dye they would use for a baby having a IVP.  Which
     makes me think it should be O.K.Iwant some documentation though, as
     this Mom has already lost this infants twin and I do not want to cause
     her any more grief. What do you say Dr. Hale or Dr.Jack?

     Thank you. Barbara Schemmer Springfield,Ill
