New post: Adderall And Breastfeeding

Abstracts
A new piece is now up on the lactation consultant blog: Adderall And Breastfeeding. It looks at a real dilemma some parents face — breastfeeding is best for a baby, but a mom may experience signs of ADD or ADHD and need to start a medication like Adderall, an amphetamine that transfers into breast milk. Rather than treating this as a simple yes-or-no, the article walks through what that transfer means for a nursing parent weighing their options. It sits alongside related posts on Lactation After Loss and Wellbutrin And Breastfeeding, for parents navigating medication questions while nursing.
