I've a mom in my church who is BFing an 8 months old who has reoccurring
kidney problems (her doctor believes she has kidney stones).  She called me
about taking the following herbs for treatment:  cornsilk, uva ursi, juniper
berry, cramp bark and active charcoal.  My herb knowledge is very limited.
 Does anyone have any knowledge of these herbs and their effect of BFing?
Maybe someone would know of a more effective herbal treatment for kidney
stones or maybe a suggestion for  something she could take daily for
prevention of kidney stones.

Happy holidays to all on Lactnet and best wishes for a wonderful new year,
