I have a cold and i BF

[mylittlebubs]

It's not good. I had headache for 4-5 days and now i have a cold, hope Lincold doesn't get it from me. He's still fine and i still breastfeed him.

If he had a cold can i give him calpol? i'm taking the medicine the doctor gave me, but only half the dose i was recommended

Not sure what meds the doctor prescribed but be careful as it may not be strong enough to fight whatever it is (if it's just tylenol or something like it don't worry) and this can lead to the dreaded superbugs because the strains become immune to the meds.

You should be fine to breastfeed. This was a topic of discussion the other day at our baby group and the nurses told us that there shouldn't be any issues
