Question

I woke up today with a scratchy throat !! I think I’m starting to get sick. I’m breastfeeding my 1 month old and I am so scared to get her sick !

What should I do 😭?

Raven · Answer

My son never got sick from me while I was breastfeeding. Or sick at all for that matter. Now that he doesn't breasfeed anymore we have to be careful, but the antibodies in the breastmilk definitely kept him from getting sick.

I feel much better ! Thanks

Keep breastfeeding her, she’s getting antibodies through your breast milk so she should be ok.

I’ve been trying my best to take care of myself to not get sick for the same reason .... 😭😭 
Thank you
