Nursing a Sick Baby
My girl is down with flu, and she is very grumpy. She wants the breasts all the time, and if I detach her when she is sleeping, she will wake up immediately and search for the breast again. Lots of nursing moms agree that when our babies are sick, they really need more tender loving care and nursing than usual. Sometimes, we fall sick as well due to lack of rest.
But when we are sick, we have the antibodies with will be passed on to our sick babies and help them to recover faster. As long as we are fit to nurse them, why not? That’s why nursing moms can still breastfeed their babies even if they themselves are not well.
It’s the natural way of healing, and I’m doing it now. But you still need to bring the sick baby to see a doctor, ok? Don’t try self medication at home.
