Posted on Sat, 28 Jun 2014

Question: hi i have a 5 month old baby. I m feeding her with only breast milk till now. And feeding is done after every one hour or 1 and half hour at present. As feeding has become lilltle more frequent now i feel tired sometime losing stamina. I am eating my food well at time whenever hungry though. I was prescribed orofer xt and ccm tab for 1 month after getting discharged with baby by the gynae doc.

My query is do i need to continue any medication as long as i continue breast feeding. I am planning to feed my baby with breastmilk till 1 and 1/2 year. And i know i will be losing weight till that time very much. Bcoz this happened with my first baby.

Thank you.
Regards
