I can’t find any advice online for bf’ing a baby when they have impetigo!

my 17mo has suspected impetigo - GP appt at midday tomorrow to confirm.

he still bf’s - first thing in the AM, when I pick him up after work, and then he feeds to sleep and 1-2 times overnight .

oh and we bedshare!

-am I doomed to catch it too?
-Should I be avoiding bf’ing (feels impossible tbh he’d have a fit if I refused I think!)
-anything I should be doing hygiene wise after a bf?
