If the mother has mild cold symptoms, only mild nasal congestion, runny nose and other symptoms, no fever symptoms, you can continue breastfeeding, but it is best to wear a mask when feeding, do a good job of isolation measures, so as not to infect the baby through the respiratory tract. If the cold symptoms are serious, the temperature exceeds 38.5 degrees, you need to take medication, it is best not to breastfeed during medication.
