Hi.. you can breastfeed the baby. Extract milk and give when you take tablets so that you can avoid exposure. Consult online cor discussion regarding the same
Yes , spacing feeding and medications is a good thing you are doing . It reduces the chances of any transmission .
Next Steps
Try to include yoga and light exercise in your day. Its tough for mothers , i know , but try simple yoga for 5-10 mins
