Has anyone had to take this while breastfeeding?
I have open heart surgery and I will need to be on 81mg of aspirin for 90 days after to prevent blood clots. I have checked with her Pediatrician, Lac nurse and Infant risk and they have all said 81 mg is safe. I just worry still because I have read about the risk of Reye's syndrome. But I am finding it is extremely rare too. And if I take the aspirin at night after I feed her ...she usually sleeps 10-12 hours so that will give it time to get out of my system. Any thoughts?
 
It should be ok, I had to take fragmin for 6 weeks after the birth while breastfeeding. I know it isn't the same medication but you will be fine :)
