VishruthaMom of 2 children4 years agoA. You CAN take care of and nurse your baby if you have COVID19. The safest place for your baby to be is with you and your milk! Breast milk provides antibodies to protect baby from contracting the virus or keeps baby from getting sicker. Always remember: Practice respiratory hygiene during feeding, wearing a mask at all times.
Wash hands before and after touching the baby.
Routinely clean and disinfect surfaces they have touched and they are going to touch.
