Am I right to think you can just buy it over the counter at the chemists? Any ideas how well it goes with breastfeeding?

No idea how it goes with bf, but you can get it over the counter at Boots (pretty sure I got mine free too)

Check with pharmacist when you buy it, It's around £20 by the way. Can you not get a prescription, cos it's free then. More info here breastfeeding network or netdoctor

sooner rather than later is best with this...or aemergency coil can be fitted.

Thanks, particularly for the links. Boots suggested I see GP or FPC, as they charge £25 over the counter, so I'm in the Docs for 4.45 this pm. The pharmacist @ Boots suggested i discuss BF with the Doc, but he felt there may be a little difficulty.

Damn my persuasive DH and his cheap wine.....

Got the morning after pill at the Doc's. No problems with BF & oi problems with the pill. I'm just wishing for no problems in 39 weeks now......
