I just had my first baby last Nov... and my first cold in 3 years,

this week. Alot has been going on... moving, holidays, company from

all over...

Well, I feel like this sickness is getting worse... aweful

cough, sinus pain, etc. What can I do besides munch garlic and vit.

C? I am breastfeeding and I really hope I kick this " ick " before my

new daughter catches it. I live in SC and delivered my baby in GA

(free-standing birthing center)... 2hrs. away.

 

Any advice? I'll keep searching... ~Michelle-Lee

Michelle-Lee,

I cannot help with the medicinal side, but I can tell you that the best

thing you can do to keep your daughter from getting that nasty cold is to

keep breastfeeding. You are passing all your natural immunities to your

baby by doing so. I breast fed all of my three children. The last two past

18 months. It is the single best thing you can do.

Congratulations and I hope you kick the cold soon!

Kathy
