Getting married in April and AF due 1/2 days before wedding.Will def still be bfing dd2.Someone suggested the pill or norethisterone.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a website that will tell me if it's safe to take either whilst bfing?

Thanks

www.kellymom.com.

I think with combined Pill, it depends how old your baby is, I would have thought norethisterone would be fine (it's what's in either mini-pill or depo IIRC)

Well been to the doctor.She gave me the norethisterone so feel better.Only thing is it may supress bf so will take for as short a time as i can.Just weaning dd now so will not be bf quite as much when we get married.

Thanks for the advice and links
