The silverette silver nursing cups were awesome, wish I knew about them with my first baby. A bit pricey, but they last and are effective!

Thank you for this! Just recently had my baby

[@Zitogalva]

Thank you for permission! :D I am breastfeeding my 10 month old and I would like to use some retinoid few times a week, but I was hesitant. The only thing I found was that using tretionin right on toddlers skin might interfere with bone development.

[@Q8IBOYS]

Thankk youuuuu i needed this video!! Tip for c section, for some reason a bled less than my regular period so I did not need to use thick pads!

[@maryd-nr2zh]

I was so excited to refill my tretinoin as soon as I gave birth. Lol.

[@DrSamEllis]

[@ashleyahmadzai]

Wow! Definitely needed this! No idea about not keeping the sunscreen in the car!! And using expired sunscreen! Eek! My favorite sunscreen for face is the Haruharu wonder SPF50!

[@danabetterly1131]

Fabulous! Tyvm

[@kavyaraveendran697]

Great video, thank you very much. Is it safe to use topical 30 % (eucerin roughness relief spot corrector) urea when breastfeeding?

[@sophie2106]

Great advice for Women.

[@Ro0oFi5]

Love the info 👌🏼

[@KIRAN143K]

Superb😘😘😘😘😘😘

[@2010Elinor]

Great video! Are there any concerns if I apply a retinal in the evening, and then at some point my baby’s face touches mine? Thank you!

[@celia78923]

Perfect timing as I’m two months postpartum! My worst stretch marks are on my breast under the nipple. I’m scared to apply tretinoin there since I’m breastfeeding but is it safe to apply tretinoin on the breast so long as it’s not on the nipple?

[@DrSamEllis]

As long as that skin also won’t come in contact with your infant’s face I personally wouldn’t be concerned.

[@celia78923]

@@DrSamEllis thank you!

[@cheche5473]

Hello how about alpha arbutin. Is it safe to use while breastfeeding?

[@deborah972]

So happy to see you Dr sam ellis 😊 xx

[@monkeybeans1239878]

[@gulshanalaskar123]

Hi maam...is zitcare capsule safe in breastfeeding

[@cheer333forever]

Love that you address pregnant people, inclusive healthcare is best practice ❤

[@whitney3585]

Any thoughts on using anti-fugal cream on feet postpartum?

[@DrSamEllis]

Shouldn’t be a problem!

[@emilyg3447]

Do you have to wash your nipple after taking the silverettes off/before breastfeeding?

[@laurenrandol3009]

What about copper peptides from the ordinary?

[@isabellarizzo9693]

How about the Botox at postpartum?

[@DrSamEllis]

I have a tik tok and Instagram reel on this! It’s also reviewed under my pregnancy highlights on my IG!

[@jillcooper600]

Thank you for calling them vaginal births and not "natural births".

[@YIGlz]

Did I hear her say "breastfeeding people"? You mean mothers. Because as you are VERY much aware, only women can get pregnant and only women can produce milk. What is going on with medical professionals nowadays!?

[@thejulietocean]

Even if you refuse to acknowledge trans existence, children very often get pregnant and give birth and produce milk. They shouldn’t under any circumstance be referred to as women. Because they aren’t women.

[@drownzi]

denial of biological reality from doctors…it’s insane

[@drownzi]

postpartum *women

[@YIGlz]

It is incredible what these so-called professionals are doing.

[@thejulietocean]

Children can and do give birth, unfortunately, and are not *women*

[@gabrijelagavric6247]

[@YIGlz]

@thejulietocean still female. But nice try

[@nayrobyzamora8784]

women is a gender category; female is a biological sex category
