Has anyone taken this product while pregnant or nursing?

I called the number on the bottle and asked if I could take it while pregnant. They said yes! I took it early in my pregnancy because I was taking antibiotics for strep throat. Now my son is 2 months old and doing great. I have also taken it while breast feeding with no problems.

I looked up some information for you and found that short-term use of Certain Dri while breastfeeding is safe. From what I have read, Certain Dri is one of the safest to use compared to other antiperspirants. It contains the least amount of aluminum, which has been linked to health risks to women who are breastfeeding. Here is the link to the article where I found the information:http://m.infantrisk.com/content/aluminum-rich-antiperspirants-potential-hazard

I used this while breastfeeding, sometimes even before feeding the baby, and he's doing great. At some point the doctor told me I could use coconut oil. I'm not breastfeeding anymore, but now I put an empty glass jar in a bowl of boiled water, and I melt lanolin in half of the jar and then put in an equal amount of coconut oil. It's wonderful. I use it on the baby and on myself. I told my husband we won't be buying body lotion in this household anymore. This is the best.

Yes, we've been really pleased with it. If the baby isn't breastfed then there's no point buying this, but if the baby switches back and forth between bottle and breast you'll be happy to have it. If you're buying it for a mom who already has a bunch of Medela stuff (pump, bottles, etc) then I recommend buying the CALMA nipple in the 8oz option. Unless the prices have changed, you get way more for your money with that option (2 bottles versus just 1) and I already had a bunch of 5oz Medela bottles. The two 8oz bottles that came with the CALMA nipple i purchased are still the only two 8oz bottles I own, so I'm glad I did it that way....kinda killed two birds with one stone.

If taken as recommended you should notice an increase in supply in at least 72 hours. It is recommended to drink lots of fluid when nursing even when one doesn't feel thirsty. Before and after nursing sessions. Great product!!! I give it a 5 star...does what it says!

I've used it during breastfeeding before. You will get very feel green lights. It will depend on your own body signs. They have very good costumer service. Send them an e-mail or call and they are usually fast at responding.

I am not quite sure the level/units you are requesting since I was not concerned this product being unsafe during pregnancy and I no longer have the product anymore. What I can indicate though is that my wife safely delivered our Twin Babies with no issues during pregnancy. They are now 16 months old. Sorry I cannot be of greater assistance.

Hi Debra, This was the only bottle that my 4 month old breast fed baby would take. It still wasn't an easy transition since he had previously been only breast fed. We left him at my in-laws house over night and went "cold turkey" switching him to the bottle. Then my husband did all the following feedings for a couple weeks by bottle while I pumped. A hard transition... but I don't think we could have done it without the comotomo bottle.

It has been wonderful for my baby that breast feeds. She has been using it since she was four weeks old.

I'm sorry hun..I really don't know, since it's the pacifier they give babies at the hospital. .and my babies take it with no problems. But I know a few other moms that exclusively BF and used this with no problems. I guess it all depends on ur baby. But if ur baby takes Mam with no problems. .I'd just stick with that.

We used this from birth without any problems, but we also breasted half the time as well. She not a "toddler" quite yet but doesn't take formula anymore because she's eating solids.

Hi Meg, I have an 8 week old (baby#3) and I have been using it as an all over moisturizer. Keeps skin nice and soft with consistent use. This oil and the Badger Baby Balm works pretty well for cradle cap too, although nothing has compared to pure jojoba oil. That's only my experience though, what works for one baby may not work for another. Hope that helps a bit.

I only used formula with it. It always worked fine. After about 3 or 4 weeks it is time for a new one. But it is intended for a one time use, so 3 or 4 weeks of use is not too bad. My baby used it all the entire time she was breastfeeding.

My wife breast feeds and so she just gives a drop everytime she feeds our baby. We haven't tried it in formula. Sorry

I do not but as a woman who has been pregnant twice I think it would benefit you. Also slightly elevated your lower legs when you sleep You will literally take a load off :))

My wife says no. She continues to take them even after she gave birth. She loves them and is super excited that she doesn't have to take a pill.
