hi there
I had methotrexate single dose injection (think quite high maybe 80 mg?) about 7 weeks ago. My baby was 5 days old when I had the shot and I was told to stop bf for 3 months. I had plaenta accrete which is why I needed the drug.
I have had a lot of different opinions on this drug and bf and Im wondering if I am in fact to wait for 3 months or whether I could try to re-establish safely at this stage almost 7 weeks after the injection?
I thought i had made my peace with formula feeding but I really want to bf and it is upsetting me that I cant - if there is any concrete evidence or certainty that I will be ok to feed my baby I wuld much appreciate it
Thanks
