A mom called me, she has been advised to take the medication iodoquinal
(yodoxin) 650 mg, for twenty days. so far all the sources I have checked
agree with her doctor's recomendation to pump and dump for the safety of
the  baby who is 4 months old. She had nursed her first child 4 years and
wants to nurse this baby as long as possible. The baby doesn't like finger
feeding, will take a bottle. She is going to try the haberman feeder.
      I have been away while this started, my question is have any of you
seen many babies successfully go back on the breast after three weeks. I
don't have a lot of experience with this so I told her I would ask the
experts I know on the internet. TIA for any help on this matter or
suggestions on alternative feedings at this time.
