A. there should not be any problem and you can give fever and cold medicines to the mother and she can also continue breastfeeding of the child and she can wear a mask while giving breastfeeding

A. If you have a cold or flu, fever, diarrhoea and vomiting, or mastitis, keep breastfeeding as normal. Your baby won't catch the illness through your breast milk – in fact, it will contain antibodies to reduce her risk of getting the same bug. “Not only is it safe, breastfeeding while sick is a good idea.
