#asktheexperts shall I take covid vaccine... I am a lactating mother of 5 months baby.. Still I feel numbness in fingers when I wake up in the morning.. What about the side effects which may cause weakness and then may be due to that I would not be able to feed my baby.. How should I manage breastfeeding after taking covid vaccine

A. Hello dear parent! As per the latest guidelines breastfeeding mothers are allowed to take Covid vaccinations. Consult your doctor for further assistance. Eat a well balanced healthy diet and keep yourself hydrated all through the day while breastfeeding your baby. Give a gap of 2 hours between feeds and vaccinations. Good luck and take care.
