Sharon,

All homeopathic remedies are safe to take when nursing.I am assuming that
you are talking about a homeopathic remedy, 30C or lower potency.Because
homeopathy is an energy medicine, there is nothing physical/chemical to
be transferred to the baby. And, even if it were, the remedy would not
hurt the baby. In fact, I just gave homeopathic arnica to a baby 2 hours
old last week. Homeopathy can not be used like herbs where you can give
the herbs to the mother to treat the baby.
