BFers & EPers Help Please!

So DH and I seem to have had something for dinner that made us sick (possible food poisoning). I EP and really don't want DD to get this... should I throw away the milk I pumped since dinner last night?

 TIA!

    kellymom.com says that you should continue nursing if you get food poisoning, or most any other illness (the only ones contraindicated are HIV and HTLV-1!) In very severe food poisoning cases, like if you were hospitalized for it, it might be a different story.

     

    ETA: definitely don't throw your milk away!!

    I had food poisoning and I continued to nurse DD through out the day and she was fine. You shouldn't throw out the milk.

    Yep, food poisoning won't be passed through BM.  Make sure you are staying hydrated though!  Feel better, mama.
