does anyone know if I should take something for cold since I breastfeed. .

@rachelmariecroxton,

@rachelmariecroxton,

@rachelmariecroxton, yeah. There are a ton of reasons breastfeeding is so much better.

I didnt know all this things .Thanks again for your help. .

@californiahaley, I assume that's another reason as to Why breast feeding is better and recommended by doctors?

@junebaby, Tannon hasn't ever been sick either. In rarely sick, I have a great immune system, my husband doesn't though. He's always sick. But me and tan hardly ever he it

Thanks ..lady's ..;)

@rachelmariecroxton, all food, and drinks turn into milk. But by viruses I've had a cold a few times since tan was born and he's never gotten sick the virus doesn't get passed but any kind of antibodies you create get passed so if you have a cold and you fight it off, you've passed antibodies to your baby. So if the virus is sill floating around the house like your husband got it. Your baby is less likely to get sick.

@californiahaley, that's right. my doctor told me to keep breastfeeding even when I'm sick because of the antibodies. my babies never got sick from men

@californiahaley, huh, I thought everything that went through you went to the baby as well. That's interesting.

Actually the virus or cold DOESNT get transferred to your baby, the antibodies that your immune system creates gets transferred. So having a cold and breastfeeding is actually great for your baby because it give them antibodies without them needing to have the cold.

Ask your pediatrician though just to be sure but it was ok when I breastfed my kids.

I'm not really a medicine. lover just trying not to. .contagious my babies. .

Sudafed and Tylenol cold are both fine.

you should be fine.

Everything that goes in your body, goes in their body because you breast feed. So the ''virus'', if you can even really call a cold that, goes to them as well. If you take something, you should take something that is alcohol free. Like kids tylenol cold and flu, just double the dose, and
