A member asked:

I have temp 38.5, aching joints, sneezing, sore throat, nausea. i am breastfeeding 8 month baby. what is best way to protect him from getting this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Continue nursing: Continuation of nursing during periods of illness is beneficial because antibodies produced by mother are passed through breast milk and can help babies recover faster from illness or help prevent infection. As always, cover your cough and be diligent about hand washing after nose blowing, coughing, etc.
