Guest guest Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 Hi, i am new to the group, my name is niki and I was wondering if someone could answer a few questions for me. I am due to have our 5th son next weekish, and 2 weeks after that I am due to have major surgery to remove the remainder of my teeth and insert dentures. My teeth are bad enough to were they are only roots and stumps and will need to be scraped, dug and cut out of my jawbone. I am sorry for the graphics. I am not so worried about the medication during the surgery, but am worried about teh pain after wordds and not being able to take the medications afterwards while nursing. Has anyone ever gone thru this while nursing, i will not take anything including ty3, and am wanting to find a way to help manage the pain, I am loading up on clove oil. Any thoughts would be greatly apreciated. Oh, i do not have the option of waiting for the surgery, as my insurance will stop covering me when the baby reaches 6 weeks old, is a pcap program in NY for pregant moms who do not qualify for medicaid but cannot afford the $500 month the other insurance wants....

Dear Niki, I nursed both my babies and it was worth every minute. I see the solution might be to stop for the duration of the surgery and aftermath or pain and use what works to kill the pain. Then, somehow detox the body before you nurse again. You could bottle feed, and then nurse again. You can stop and start again, if you are patient, and the baby is willing. Isn't it terrible that we have to make medical decisions based on the insurance companies needs? Perhaps there is a drug like Darvocet that is for after baby pain, but does not hurt the baby if the mother nurses? I used it for pain after episiotomy. Maybe you could take care of both issues at once. It would not hurt to ask. (And the generic version is cheap--like about $3 a bottle). Also, there are many therapies for pain on this site, like EFT (acupuncture without needles) that will take away dental pain and many other ailments. Perhaps someone else on the site can tell you more ideas. I think also that nursing gives the mom a natural pain coping mechanism so maybe it will be a little easier for you. I hope so Have a Beautiful Baby and Congratulations in his Love Athena Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 Hi and thanks so much for your advice. Yes, it is terrible that we have to hop around for the insurance compnaies, I have put off my teeth for so many years due to lack of insurance. It is just amazing how much dentists and oral surgeons cost... or any kind of visit for that matter. I had thought of expressing before hand maybe enough for a couple days if I am to be on meds for pain, am hoping the baby will go back to nursing at such a young age after having to take a bottle...

Don't worry too much about your baby going back to nursing. I even heard of a case where a grandmother was able to nurse her grandchild during a snowstorm in her car, so I know that you will be able to do it after a short break. It only takes about 1-3 days of nursing to completely eliminate a food or medication, I think, if you drink lots of water. You could also detox the liver by drinking cranberry juice, if you are worried. When it's time, just keep offering. Even as "pacifier" when asleep. The baby much prefers you. And eventually you will be right back on track. Take care Athena Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 Hi Niki, Besides clove oil, which should work great, I've also found rinsing my mouth with tea tree oil mixed with water sometimes helps pain, though I don't swallow. Also oregano oil w/water (which you can swallow) has helped too. Good luck with the surgery. I'll eventually end up with upper dentures, somewhere down the road. If I think of anything else that has worked re pain, I'll post!

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 just don't use clove oil without diluting it..it can damage your tissues.
