Hi everyone,
I am still trying to find out if:
a- maternal exposure to formaldehyde will effect the breastmilk - does it
pass through?
b- formaldehyde is found in the milk of an exposed mother how can it be
measured?  How long does it stay in the milk?
c- there are deleterious effects on a breastfeeding infant/toddler from
the exposure to (possible) formaldehyde in breastmilk.

I could not find anything on Medline.  The only info I have is the
permissible adult exposure level at the workplace.

The mother has turned down one part time job because of lack of info.  She
wants to know soon to understand her options for the next option.

TIA
