Chicken pox

In the hospital my nurse told me that the baby's mouth coming in contact with your breast will tell your body what the baby needs, this was the case person description from an article that I could find."Breastmilk can also change when your baby is sick or you are exposed to illness. In fact, researchers believe that when a baby is sick, she passes on a cue through her saliva that sends a signal to her mother’s body to produce more milk with illness-specific antibodies. Magical, right? Similarly, if the breastfeeding mother is exposed to a virus, she will produce antibodies that get passed on to the baby for protection."

are you breastfeeding? you can pass the immunity to the baby if you are and can help lessen the chance of baby getting it. if not, please don’t beat yourself up! lots of mamas are experiencing the same thing with covid19 right now. there’s no way you could’ve known you’d be exposing baby to it until it’s too late, just like every virus. as long as baby’s pediatrician knowns every little symptom baby is experiencing they’ll know what to do
