Is Lyme passed through breast milk. I’ve read conflicting reports.

I would err on the side of caution but everything I've read is contradicting as well. Sorry I don't have a better answer for you.

It's pretty well-accepted that passing it along in utero is possible, right? So unless it's a new infection, it wouldn't be adding anything the baby wasn't already exposed to?
