I have permission to post:
I am working w/ a new mother and her full term, healthy baby (now 2 days  
old.)  I routinely check on all moms at our hospital, breastfeeding or  not.  
This mom said she  was not breastfeeding due to her taking  Parlodel 2.5mg daily 
for a Pituitary tumor.  (Mom has been on this  medication x 18 months w/ only 
an occasional headache as a side  effect/problem.)
 
I gave her the information found in 2006 Hale's book that said the  problem 
was w/ milk suppression; but that some mothers able to produce enough  milk and 
stay on med.
 
The parents are SO EXCITED about the possibility of breastfeeding.   Baby is 
now at breast and doing well (today).  Her physicians are not so  sure. 
 
What do you say?
