Brief Answer:
Yes, it's safe

Detailed Answer:
Dear Ms, I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns.

But there is no need to worry as milk of magnesia use during breastfeeding is not expected to cause any adverse effects on the breastfed infant or affect the infant's blood magnesium level at all..

I hope I answered your question..
Kind regards
