Does anyone have any experience using this homeopathic remedy in a >bf mom and newborn?. Paula, homeopathic remedies are safe for breastfeeding mothers and their babies because, if you understand homeopathy, you understand that there is "nothing" there that could harm anyone. This absence of "active ingredients" is the major source of skepticism of homeopathy on the part of pharmaceutical medicine. Arnica would be a good remedy for the healing of the mother you are working with, as it is good for all kinds of bruises and tissue trauma. My dentist gave me some after my one hour of work last Tuesday. I am not highly knowledgeable about the practice of homeopathy, but I do know that it is safe, so I feel comfortable when a mom asks about its use.
