Could the experts on Lactnet please respond to the dangers of a
combined ibuprofen/acetaminophen pain relief regime while
breastfeeding, vs. T3s?  What are the dangers and risks of either?
Could the ibuprofen/acetaminophen combination cause "unexplained"
seizure activity in the nursing infant?  Any other relevant info
would be appreciated!  Which would you recommend and why?
Thank you!
Mary
