Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
She can continue probiotics. They won’t get secreted in breast milk and doesn’t cause any harm to baby. Do not over use probiotics as it can cause unwanted complications.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
