I'm sorry I don't know how to search the archives- perhaps this has been discussed before but I would love to hear from others... One of the residents asked me if I had heard about anyone ever being allergic to their breastmilk. Her sister is breastfeeding her second child ( unsure actual age but newborn). The baby spit some breastmilk onto the mother's chest causing hives. The mother took some EBM and put on her arm. She noted red, raised whelps which itched for several hours before going away. She doesn't have any problem with her nipples and did not notice this with her first child. Please email me with any similar experiences or information @ [log in to unmask] Thanks Lynn *********************************************** To temporarily stop your subscription: set lactnet nomail To start it again: set lactnet mail (or digest) To unsubscribe: unsubscribe lactnet All commands go to [log in to unmask] The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(TM) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
