How to safely treat a bladder infection while breastfeeding?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Inform doc: As long as you let the doc know you are breast feeding they can select an antibiotic that will not harm baby. A general rule is if i could treat baby at that age with the medication for some problem it is fine for you to take it while breastfeeding.
