Can I breastfeed during the epidemic?
Breast milk is recognized as the most nutritious and safest baby food in the world, so as long as it is not for special reasons, it is recommended to breastfeed babies. At present, it is during the epidemic, but as long as the mother is normal and not infected, she can breastfeed completely.

Whether you can breastfeed during the epidemic depends on the situation:

First, Ma Bao has abnormal symptoms such as runny nose and fever, so it is necessary to suspend breastfeeding.

At present, novel coronavirus is mainly spread through respiratory droplets, direct contact, faeces and aerosols. If Ma Bao has respiratory symptoms such as runny nose, cough and fever, it is best to stop breastfeeding until she is diagnosed as not infected with novel coronavirus. Moreover, be sure to wear a mask to avoid contact with the baby to avoid infection.

Second, during the epidemic, if Ma Bao is healthy, she should insist on breastfeeding.

Breast milk is the most nutritious and suitable food for infants to absorb. It plays an important role in the health, growth and intellectual development of babies. Even during the epidemic, as long as Ma Bao is healthy, she must insist on breastfeeding.

Third, there must be the best baby protection during the epidemic.

Infants and young children have weak body resistance and underdeveloped immune system, and are more susceptible to infection by bacteria and viruses. Therefore, in the special period of the epidemic, we should strengthen the protective measures for infants and young children. Infants and young children had better be isolated at home, and don't go outdoors. It is also best for family members not to kiss the baby's face and mouth. In the process of breastfeeding, Ma Bao should not vent her anger on the baby.

To sum up, the nutrition of infants is also very important during the epidemic, and breast milk is the most nutritious food for infants. Ma Bao must take good care of itself, supplement more nutrition, ensure adequate breast milk and good health, let the baby eat enough breast milk, enhance the resistance, reduce the infection rate of bacteria and viruses, and thus grow up healthily!
