YE GODS AND LITTLE FISHES! Digoxin is approved for use in breastfeeding
mothers by the American Academy of Pediatrics.  See Tom Hale's book
Medications in Mothers' Milk, 2000, p. 203.

This is a clear example of breastfeeding sacrificed on the altar of
ignorance of the health care professionals directing this mother's care.

I would advise clear communication with the physician immediately, with
immediate pumping and getting baby to breast, with herbs to boost supply,...

oh dear oh dear.
