BF moms - I have an upset stomach is it ok to keep nursing?

Hi ladies, i have a bit of an upset stomach tonight - not sure if it is a virus or something i ate - i am not throwing up but - the other thing Chat Icon

Is it ok to BF my son tonight or should i give him a bottle? I'm only hesitating b/c i don't have any stored BM right now so it would have to be formula (which I do give him sometimes). I have been BF all day b/f I realized how bad my stomach was... Is that ok?

One time I had a really bad upset stomach and decided to pump and dump a few hours later...I didn't want to risk it, although they do say that its not necessary...

I just got over a REALLY wicked stomach virus. The doctor (who, by the way was named CRAPSTER) told me it was fine to nurse with a stomach flu.

BUT, then he had to put me on anti nausea meds for the night (I couldn't keep ANYTHING down) so I had to pump and dump for one day.

As long as you aren't taking Rx meds for nausea, you're fine. BTW- Immodium is fine to use while BFing.

Feel better- and keep nursing.
