She can go ahead and breastfeed.  If the half life is 110 minutes,
there will be no radioactivity in her milk after 5 half lives or about
10 hours, but at some point it will be so low that there is no
concern.  I would say no need to worry.  If she wants to worry, 4
hours would probably be fine (after injection).
