pump and dump

mommy got that super nasty flu that is going around. luckily i got a prescription for that Tami-flu that is suppose to ward off the worst of the flu. i asked both the doctor and the pharmacist and they said that they did not know and to check with the other about breast feeding while on the drug. i ended up reading the literature and opted not to feed Adler while on drugs. the medicine CAN be passed on via breast milk but they DONT know the effects on the baby. So instead of risk it we are throwing out everything that i pump now and having her eat the stuff that is frozen from the first few weeks when supply outweighed demand. sad thing is when i try to feed her the bottle she pushes it out of her mouth and starts to nuzzle my bobby, as daddy says "she wants it straight from the tap." it breaks my heart to not be able to give her what she wants when it is the most natural thing between a mommy and baby.
