Vyvanse and Mixing Milk
My daughter is 7 months old and I have been exclusively pumping. She has about 6 or 7 bottles a day and has been eating solids 3x per day. I have just resumed my ADHD medication (40 mg of Vyvanse) but I’m unsure how to go about it in the safest way.
Right now I pump in the morning before I take my medication. I have been continuing to pump throughout the day and keeping it separate. I give her frozen milk instead of what I pump during the day. I resume feeding her my pumped milk after 12 hours have passed.
My freezer supply is quickly dwindling with this practice, and I am wondering if it would be safe to mix the milk I pump while on my medication with milk from my freezer stash to lower the concentration of the medication. Alternatively I could dump it, and use formula instead but I would like her to have all the benefits of breastmilk for as long as possible.
