Surviving Seasonal Allergies while Breastfeeding...

[Laurski]

I'm hoping someone can give me a natural suggestion for how to control my god-awful seasonal allergies.  In the past, I've usually taken loratidine (or a loratidine-D when they got unbearable).  Last spring, when I was pregnant, I obviously didn't take any of the loratidine-D and only used loratidine on really bad days...but being pregnant also seemed to protect me from the worst of my reactions.

I don't want to take loratidine this spring b/c I'm nursing my 6.5 month old and am afraid it will negatively impact my supply.  Any mamas on here BTDT with controlling their seasonal allergies while nursing?

Thanks!

(Not sure if this should go here or elsewhere--mods, please move if necessary!)

Vitamin c

Magnesium - citrate or glycinate

Nettles infusion

Bioallers homeopathic formulas

Local raw honey

Neti pot/sinus irrigation

Probiotics

Lots you can do. Nettles infusion helps me the most as long as I drink 2-4 cups every day.

Facial massage and nasal saline saved the day for me.  Good luck!
