Hello Everyone,
I am looking for your expertise. Yesterday I noticed fluid in my ears as I was sick. Today I called my doctor and I went to see him to see what was going on. I cannot hear out of my right ear so I really need to take something. My family doctor prescribed Allegra D and once I was in my car I took one. Oh and my doctor knows I am lactating.
Then I remembered that I had heard that decongestants can dry up your milk supply. So I called my obgyn and he suggested I try Sudafed. I was told if that does not work to then use the allegra D. My questions are these will the sudafed dry up my milk supply. I am still a little down in ozs. from slowing things down with the meds and pumping. Now though I am back to taking all of the dom, and herbs.
Due to being sick I am down a little as I have not pumped as much or eaten much. Pease let me know your experience with sudafed and milk supply. Right now I need to do all that I can to increase my supply not decrease it.
One last question should I be dumping my milk because of the sudafed? It's not like I don't have some, my freezer is pretty full of milk. Which is good I may be needing it soon.
Please let me know your thoughts concerning this?
Thanks,
Bella
