A. can feed her with due precautions. Wash hands frequently with soap and water or use alcohol-based hand rub and especially before touching the baby; Wear a medical mask during any contact with the baby, including while feeding; Sneeze or cough into a tissue. Then dispose of it immediately and wash hands again; Routinely clean and disinfect surfaces after touching them

A. hi dear the World Health Organization (WHO) advised early and exclusive breastfeeding for COVID-19 suspected and confirmed mothers, while encouraging them to take adequate precautions. Mothers who are too ill to breastfeed are advised to feed their expressed breastmilk [8].
