Hi,

DH has come home with a sickness bug yesterday so he is asleep in the spare room while I have our 7 week old with me.
I now have started to be ill so really worried about LO. Will he get it? What should I do? What to look out for? I am breastfeeding him, will that help / hinder.
Help please xx

Breast milk doesn't pass on d and v bugs, as long as you wash your hands baby should be ok. I hope you feel better quickly

Thanks for your advice. Luckily LO didn't catch it & we have both recovered. Grandparents came & took him for the day so we could both rest up.
Was really worried yesterday so thanks for coming back with your advice,

Xx
