sorry to dominate this thread, but i had another thought...

did any of you breastfeed while on the meds?

i had to stop xanax during pregnancy and early breastfeeding, but my doc said i would be able to continue the hydro with only 5 mgs every 6 hrs. while breastfeeding. During pregnancy i was allowed to take 5 mg only when desperate, and very seldom. not enough, but some relief. doc said very very little of opiates cross through in breastmilk. my daughter still breastfeeds but only 2 short times a day, so i was able to increase to no more than 15 mgs hydro a day and no more than 1 mg xanax.

just curious as to your experiences.
