Hi there,

I think that your question about what the ketones do to the breast milk is a great question. There is an organization called La Leche League where you can call and ask that question. I would imagine that with so many people on low carb these days they would have some info on how it affects breastfeeding. The should have a web site that will have info or a phone number that you can call. Also, there are independent lactation consultants that might be able to answer your questions over the phone with out any fee. Many lactation consultants work through the OB units in hospitals. You can probably get a referral from them.
Hope this helps!
