Dr. Hale has a lengthy write up on Flagyl which concludes "Thus far, no
reports of untoward effects in breastfed infants have been published for
the 2 gram STAT dose, or the 250 mg. three times daily for 10 day dose
regimen." & " Metronidazole is the treatment of choice for pediactric
giardiasis (AAP)"   :-)
Hope this helps.  Sincerely, Pat in SNJ
