aside from the question of benadryl's compatibility w/ BF what about how it
seems to affect milk supply? I've had moms given it for severe itching 2ndary
to epidural meds. whose supply seemed to disappear, temporarily it seems.
There is some research out there saying generallly antihistamines are OK and
don't drop supply. But what I've found is that the newer the supply the more
vulnerable theyare. anyone comment?
Usually I'll counsel to take if needed and watch for low-supply symptoms.
