Hemorrhoids While Breastfeeding

October 19th, 2010 Leave a comment Go to comments

Breastfeeding and contracted some virus yesterday. Terrible cramps and diarrhea , can I take anything for it?

Can I take anything for it to slow it down while BF? Like pepto??

Also, it gets bad when I eat ….. can I eat less till this goes away. As long as I keep drinking plenty of water my milk supply will be fine, right?

These cramps are terrible, so painful … I also developed a hemorrhoid from going so much :(

Just stay hydrated, you don’t have to eat to keep your supply up and sometimes resting your stomach is the best thing you can do. I am pretty sure ammodium is okay as well. Call your OB-there is a prescription drug called Lomotil that is safe fore pregnant women and may be okay for nursing moms too, that really helps when nothing else is doing it.
Feel better soon!!
