I'm just looking for feedback regarding how others manage the circumstances when a mother who is known to consume marijuana expresses a desire to BF, or is breastfeeding....considering it's L-5 status in Hale? Do you treat this as a contraindication to breastfeeding? Can some of you think outloud so I can hear you? :) I've read the archives. What are your thoughts re: a mother who tested positive prenatally being told she may not initiate breastfeeding until she produces a negative SAS?? This sounds strikingly similar to the HIV question we had the other day, but I would really love to hear some of your thoughts. Keep in mind, I work in the US, in a state where marijuana consumption (and sale) is illegal. Thanks, Michelle H.
