I thought you'd all appreciate this one...I just came from my dentist's
office and was told to pump and not to nurse for 24 hours because I had
Novcaine with epinephrine.  His theory is that the epi would be hazardous to
my nursing 22 month old.   I then asked him what the T1/2 and protein
binding of epi is, but he didn't know.  Of course I promptly came home and
looked it up.
This IS the same dentist that my friend sees (the one who was told to wean
because of her gums).
