Diving after pregnancy

[Frosty]

my wife dove 5 months after having our youngest.The only issue was that her chest had expanded "a bit' so her wetsuit was extra tight.

No issues bf'ing and diving dry. I have also had women who were clearing to dive post pregnancy and bf'd babies between dives. Once you are all healed up, back to life

Dissolved nitrogen makes bubbles right don't think it would affect the nutrition or make it unsafe.

But Carbonated breast milk sounds like something you could get paid for in California after all Perrier water is all the rage there.

Once the physical trauma of birth (episiotomy or tearing) is healed, there is no reason why the mother can't dive.

Elevated nitrogen levels in the blood, which might persist for a while after diving, are not going to be of any concern to an infant who is ingesting breast milk.
