Breastfeeding and clexane...
Hi
I'm just wondering if anyone has taken Clexane and been able to breastfeed successfully? I'm currently on 60mg injections every 12 hours for DVT and will continue to inject for 6 weeks after the birth (I'm due in mid June). I am a bit worried of the risks involved as I do plan to breastfeed during this time. I've done some research via internet and same say it's fine and others say there is a risk. The dr's I have asked said it's not a problem, but I still don't know!! If there are others who have been in the same situation, I need your advice!!
I was suppose to fly back to NZ the beginning of April to give birth at home, but instead I spent a week in Al Wasl Hospital with extensive DVT! Not quite what I was expecting as now my DH and I have to plan the birth here which was very unexpected!! And on top of that, it was discovered that my baby has an irregular heartbeat! It's incrediable how a perfect, problem-free pregnancy can suddenly change and end up high-risk! But overall, I must say the care I received in Al Wasl was really good. Getting to know it really well now mind - the only part I don't think I've been to is the labour ward (but that will come soon enough!)
If anyone can give me any advice, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
