Yes - my m/w told me to take ibuprofen and paracetamol together for an infection whilst I was bf, so definitely okay...

yes definitely ok. I had morphine after my c/s and that was ok too.

I sent DH to buy some and the pharmacist said I'm not allowed any
It is listed on kellymom as okay

It's fine. Don't forget that there is baby ibuprofen.
