My baby is almost 2 weeks old. Dad has the stomach bug & I feel like I might be getting it too. Can my newborn get the stomach bug? How do I prevent it?
I totally get it! Even if your body gets a touch of it and you don't even notice, it's produce antibodies for him! The antibodies will help him either way and are SO good for him in the future 😊 I hope you guys don't get it tho!
Yes, take some vitamin c pills or emergen-c to boost your immune system. The breastmilk will give your baby what he needs to prevent it.
@mommy_faith, @rachel8792 I am breast feeding. I'm not completely sure I'm even getting it but I just want to be sure. The last thing I want to do is to get him sick! My husband is getting over it right now so maybe that will help!
My husband and I both caught the flu. My husband first, so I limited contact between them, and made my husband wash his hands a bajillion times. I was breastfeeding so I know that helped keep it away from my son. When I got it, my husband was basically over it, so he took care of the baby, and brought him to me when it was time to eat. I just cleaned constantly, and washed my hands alot though
@each el8792, @mommy_faith thank both of you so so much!!! I'm going to try the emergency-c and to keep clean and out of his face as much as I love kissing him for a couple of days!! 😊
