3 week old premature born 35+5days
I am a mother of 3 week old premature baby born in 35+5 days. He had jaundice and was on photo theraphy and now is fine with bilirubin levels of 4.5. Suddenly i am having runny nose and itchy eyes. Can I breastfeed the baby and can i be in contact with him such as holding him close or lifting him? Can I take paracetamol for my cold? Is sinarest safe while breastfeeding? Or does it affect my baby? Kindly advise
