Helen,
I have no definitive answers re Decadron and Nitrous Oxide. But the decadron,
if I am not mistaken, is like prednisone (corticosteroid) and is compatible
with bf.  Mom will probalby get a low dose for swelling or something like
that.  The nitrous, I would think would be like other anesthetics, when she
is alert, etc. it would seem OK.  Esp. if we are talking an older baby or
toddler.
