Can a mother breastfeed her child after she has a cold and fever?

Babies under the age of six months, we are encouraged to breastfeed, during the breastfeeding period, mothers know that what they eat is equal to what the baby eats, mothers will eat into the milk, however, mothers are most worried about their cold and fever during breastfeeding, can they continue to breastfeed?

Absolutely. But it also depends on the situation, for the different symptoms of cold and fever, we have sorted out the following points, I hope it will be helpful to mothers.

When a cold during breastfeeding is not accompanied by a high fever

Drink more hot water, eat a light and easy-to-digest diet, it is best to have someone next to you to take care of the baby, you can have more time to sleep and rest, during this period you can breastfeed, if you are worried about contact with the baby too close, you can wear a mask for feeding, the baby has a certain immunity shortly after birth, do not worry too much about infecting the baby and dare not feed.

If you take the medicine, it will take 6-12 hours before you can breastfeed. Because after using cold medicine, the ingredients in the medicine will also enter the milk, which is equivalent to the baby indirectly taking the drug, affecting the baby's health, so it is easy to infect the cold to the baby.

Lactating colds are accompanied by high fever (above).

If you have a high fever, a lack of mental state, or poor appetite after a cold, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible, and if necessary, you should be given antibiotics that have little effect on your milk, and breastfeeding can be suspended for 1-2 days during the period of high fever. During the pause, mothers should not forget to express the milk to avoid blockage and milk knots. Mothers also need to drink plenty of hot water, supplement vitamin C, and have a good rest.

In addition, the problem of milk blocking just mentioned, mothers should also pay attention to it, and some mothers say that the pain of milk blocking is even more painful than giving birth. If the mother has a blocked milk, you can use massage to relieve it, heat the hot stone with water to the appropriate temperature, and then use the massage stone to massage gently, so that the massage will help the mother's milk blockage greatly.

You can still breastfeed your child during a cold, because there are antibodies in breast milk, which can effectively reduce the baby's cold, make the child's resistance stronger, and the cold will not be transmitted through breast milk.

After the mother has a fever, it is not recommended to breastfeed the child, and the mother should wait until the mother is well before breastfeeding the child, which is healthier.

I don't think it's okay to breastfeed your child, because it's not good for your child's health, it's not good for your child's physical development, and it will also reduce your child's immunity.

No, after the mother has a cold, there will be some viruses in the body, and these viruses may make the baby sick.

You can't feed your child breast milk, because the mother's body will undergo some changes after she has a cold and fever, and the quality of breast milk is not good.

I think it is true that you can't breastfeed your child, because it is not conducive to the child's physical health at all, nor is it conducive to the child's physical development, so parents must pay attention to this aspect of the problem.

Cold and fever do not affect the quality of breast milk, you can rest assured to feed your child, it is recommended to wear a mask during the feeding process, do not breathe face to face, in order to prevent infection to the child.

In addition: Breastfeeding mothers can also take medicine, it is recommended to go to the doctor to make it clear that you are breastfeeding, so that the doctor will take the medicine as appropriate.

If the mother has a cold and fever, it is best not to feed the child breast milk, because it is easy to transmit the cold to the child through breast milk, and if the mother swallows cold medicine, the cold medicine will also affect the child, so try to avoid feeding the child breast milk in the case of fever.

When a mother has a cold, viruses or bacteria are not transmitted to the baby through breast milk, on the contrary, the antibodies produced when they are sick will be passed on to the baby, which can also help them better protect themselves when they are sick.

I think of course it is, because the quality of breast milk decreases after a cold and fever.

On the one hand, they dare not take medicine, worried about the impact on the baby's health, and on the other hand, they are afraid that the cold will be aggravated and transmitted to the baby, and they can not take care of the baby when they have a cold.

First of all, the mother can continue to feed the child when she is breastfeeding with a cold. Generally speaking, cold viruses are rarely transmitted through lotions, but are transmitted by usual contact or air, so when the mother has a cold, it has polluted the environment in which the baby lives. When the mother has a cold, the breast milk will also produce corresponding antibodies, so that the baby can eat breast milk for passive immunity.

Mothers only need to wear a mask to avoid infecting their babies. If a lactating mother has a fever, then breastfeeding can be stopped for a day or two.

Secondly, you can also feed your baby when you take cold medicine, and almost all the medicine will be secreted through breast milk, but the amount is very small. Mothers can't stop breastfeeding as soon as they're done with their medicine, and they can't stop breastfeeding no matter what medicine you take. For cold medicines, most of them will not have a great impact on the baby, but to consider the specific medicine, to consider whether it will cause a reaction in the baby, you can consult a doctor.

Finally, although breastfeeding is allowed, for the health and safety of the baby, mothers also need to pay attention to some things, such as washing hands before breastfeeding, because colds may cause sneezing and runny nose, and some bacteria may be carried on your hands, so in order not to infect your baby, you must do a good job of personal hygiene. And when coughing, it is best to avoid the baby, not to the baby.

If the cold symptoms are not very serious, it is best not to use medicine first, and you can drink more hot water to relieve the symptoms. If the cold is more severe, you can use medicine under the guidance of a doctor, but it is best to feed the baby after three or four hours after the medication, so as not to cause harm to the baby.

During the breastfeeding period, cold and fever, do not breastfeed the baby, first replace it with milk powder, boil the white radish first, drink pear water, drink hot water, let the body sweat slightly, take proper rest, if you still have a fever, you should eat some antipyretics, and wait for the body to recover, and then feed the baby as well.

It is best not to feed the baby if you have a cold and fever, because the resistance of the forehand is relatively poor, in order to avoid viral infection, open the bucket, so do not feed the baby during the illness.

If you can breastfeed, you can feed it if you don't take medicine, but don't feed it if you take medicine.

If you can't breastfeed, the quality of your breast milk will change after you have a cold and fever, and if you continue to breastfeed your child, it will cause your child to have a fever and a cold.

No, if you give your child breast milk at this time, it may make your child catch a cold, and it will directly affect your child's resistance, and you may even have fever and pneumonia.

I don't think it's okay to continue breastfeeding your baby because there is a high chance that you will pass bacteria to your baby, and your baby's immunity is very low.

It's better not to feed this anymore. Because you can't be sure if breast milk after a cold has an effect on the baby.

If the mother has a fever, do not breastfeed the child, after all, the child's body is important.
