Taking Medication While Breastfeeding

Hey everyone! It's been windy here the past couple of days and today I woke up sneezing, runny nose and watery eyed. So far I've been coping with my allergies patiently, but it's getting to the point where my nose is getting raw and I randomly spook my daughter with surprise sneezes. So here's the question, is it safe to take allergy medication while I'm breastfeeding? Something like an antihistamines or children’s Benedryl? I haven't done so yet for the sake of my sweetie's milk, but if it won't affect her and provide me some relief.....

In Need of a Good Congestion Medicine for 5 Mo. Old

My 5 month old went to the Dr. last week due to a cough and congestion. Turns out his ears were red inside so the Dr. put him on antibiotics, nasal medicine and some ear drops (if needed). He seems better but he is still so congested. He doesn't cough a ton, but when he does it sounds as if he just needs to spit out all the phlegm in his throat. Of course he can't but we can tell that he is only coughing because he has so much chest congestion. His nose has been running a thick mucus which is kind of good I guess because I can tell the...
