Quick introduction. I am Robin Musial a RN and certified lactation consultant from Columbus Indiana. I have just recently resubscribed to lactnet after being off for a couple years because I was overwhelmed with the volume of posts and trying to keep up with my new job. I have new settled into my new job and resubscribed. I work as a full time LC for a hospital that delivers 1500 babies a year. I also have a 1/2 time co worker to help me manage our breastfeeding population. We had a mom call this morning who was told by her dentist that the filling in her tooth is desolving and she is ingesting "a break down of the alloy" into her system and the dentist told her to contact her MD about the safety of continuing to breastfeed her baby. The baby is 9 months old mainly nursing or taking expressed breastmilk along with some of solids. She is going to have the filling fixed tomorrow and wondered if she needs to pump and dump and for how long. Any one out there run into this before or can offer suggestions?
