Breastfeeding mama's...or anyone else that can answer this. I'm running a low grade fever right now, congested and a tiny bit of a sore throat. Should I continue breastfeeding bubs, or let daddy feed him formula? (He gets formula occasionally anyways, usually overnight). I don't want to chance my little one getting sick cause I feel god awful right now, and it would break my heart if he had to feel the same way 😭

You are just giving him antibodies for what you have. You won't pass the sickness to him just the antibodies to fight it. It is very important for their tiny immune systems to get the antibodies from you

Oh I'm sorry! I really am out of it :( I was just curious as to whether or not I can breastfeed him while I'm sick.

It is still completely safe to breastfeed. Just try not to be in his face and wash your hands often.
