That was one of the scariest moment of my life. Suddenly I started shivering on my 3rd week of postpartum, I was still recovering from my C-section surgery then. We went to the hospital and I was diagnosed with a temperature of 104 degrees....then after few tests I got the news that I got COVID 19. My first question to the doctor was “Can I breastfeed?” “What about the baby??” Thank God! Doctor’s response was “It’s safe to breastfeed if you have COVID-19”. Very few illnesses are transmitted via breast milk. But yes I do have to take certain precautions as my new born was staying with me in my room. Although I was isolated from other adults but I had to stay with the baby following these steps below to reduce the chances of spreading the virus to your newborn : - ✅Wash your hands before and after touching your baby. ✅Wear a mask while nursing. ✅Wash your hands before touching your breast pump or bottle parts. Clean all parts after each use. ✅Let someone else in your household who is not sick give your baby your expressed breast milk. ✅Try to limit close face-to-face contact with your baby, and cough or sneeze into a tissue (and then throw it away). ✅When you aren’t feeding your baby, try to stay a reasonable distance from your baby as much as possible. . . . . . . #csectionrecovery #csectionmama #covidmom #covid_19 #covidsurvivor #covid #motherhood #newborn #momlife #motherhoodmoment #momentoflife #breastfeeding #breastmilk #momreels #mominfluencer #babyreels #babyinfluencer #reelitfeelit #reelsinstagram
