Can Kratom Be Taken While Breast Feeding?

My wife had her baby on Sunday night they sent her home with 800 milligram Ibuprofen as of right now it is not killing her pain I have a herbal supplement called Mitragyna Specosa (kratom). It works as a painkiller and has many other uses she is currently breastfeeding and was wondering if she could take the stuff from it and if it would have any harmful effects
