Does Getting Sick While Breastfeeding Affect My Baby?
this whole week my so has been sick with a very bad cold and he has not really gotten any better it's just me and the baby... I been doing good but I been taking care of both of them and for some reason today I get a headache .. I feel like I'm coming down with something! the question I want to ask is if I get sick does it affect my baby since I'm breastfeeding?

It's actually best if you continue to breastfeed while sick, because you will pass on immunities that your body makes to the baby! Im fact, even if you're not sick but your baby starts to catch something, even before either of you notice, your body will read what's going on with baby and send immunities and things to help the baby!!! That's because when they nurse they sort of backwash back into the breast as the suck, so your breast gets a tiny bit of saliva from baby and it's then analysed and taken care of by your body 😲😃 in short yes, it is just fine to continue to breastfeed while sick, and actually good for your baby! I've been sick twice so far and both times my lil girl hasn't caught anything 😄😉
