A. hello. Women with confirmed or suspected COVID-19 can therefore breastfeed if they wish to do so. They should: 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. if you are talking certain covid medicine avoid breast feeding and switch to formula milk

A. Hello dear parent! Nothing to worry as long as you are recovering well and your baby is also doing good. Use N95 mask and sanitise your hands before breastfeeding your baby. Eat a well balanced healthy diet and keep yourself hydrated all through the day while breastfeeding your baby. Good luck and take care.
