None: You can breast feed with Aspirin in take. If it is of concern use tylenol (acetaminophen) or motrin.

Aspirin & lactation: If low-dose Aspirin is taken, avoid breastfeeding for 1 to 2 hours after a dose to minimize antiplatelet effects in the infant (bleeding). Because of a single case report of metabolic acidosis, the american academy of pediatrics characterizes Aspirin as a drug that has been "associated with significant effects on some nursing infants and should be given to nursing mothers with caution.

Probably: It is probably safe but keep it to no more than one to two small drinks. Have as much water as you want.
