I am newly pregnant and so far my RA seems to be in remission. I breastfed my daughter for 23 months (before I had RA) and I want to breastfeed this one. Before I got pregnant I was off mtx for 4 months and doing okay on just Humira. I know they say Humira isn't proven safe for breastfeeding, but I've read online that many women have done it and there have been no problems. Does anyone here have experience with breastfeeding and Humira, was your rheumatologist supportive? Was your pediatrician supportive? How long were you able to be on just Humira, or did you combine Humira with prednisone or any other meds? How soon after delivering did you start Humira - did you wait until symptoms returned or did you anticipate it and start it earlier? Any advice would be appreciated, thanks!

Thanks - can you see my email on my profile or can I post it here?

if you would rather me send it to your regular email rather then the private message thing its up to you. Though send it to me in the PM's since its a bit saferohh nevermind it shows it in your profile if you put it in there. Yours is not on your profile though
