BFing with a cold?
I am assuming it's okay to continue BFing? I felt funny last night, and woke up with a horrible head cold this morning . And of course, DH returns to work on Monday after having almost 3 straight weeks off .

It's GOOD to BF when you have a cold - it passes all those wonderful immunities and antibodies to your DC

Re: BFing with a cold?
I agree with previous posters. My ped said to follow same precautions as you would if you were bottle-feeding... don't breathe directly in baby's face, turn when you cough, wash your hands, etc. Common sense!!
Feel better!
