I have a mom with a 4 month old baby, exclusively breastfed up to this point. Baby was started on rice cereal about 2 weeks ago. Doing wonderfully on that. Mom experienced tendonitis during pregnancy and is still having problems with it. Her doc prescribed Ibuprofen last Wednesday to take for pain. She took this for three days but it seemed to make her dizzy and nauseated so she discontinued use. On Friday, baby began to get fussy and irritable and has continued to today. Mom doesn't feel her milk coming in hardly at all now and knows baby is not getting enough evidenced by fussiness and nursing only 5 minutes on each breast at a feeding. Also, when formula was given, baby ate all 6 oz. and was content afterwards. What would be the reason for her drying up? The Ibuprofen would be the only thing obvious but I was not aware that it affects milk supply. Pregnancy might be another suggestion but she took 2 pregnancy tests last week - both negative. Any idea what is happening here?
