🤧 Sick Mama & Baby — Any Tips? 💕

We caught the flu :sneezing_face::growing_heart: Mom life doesn’t stop, even when we’re both feeling under the weather! :face_holding_back_tears:

What tips do you recommend for getting through these days while we’re sick? :heart_hands:t2::sparkles: Any advice for resting, staying hydrated, and keeping up with breastfeeding/pumping while feeling unwell? :baby_bottle::two_hearts:

I’d love to hear what has helped you and your little ones! :white_heart:

Hope that yall get to feeling better soon! Breastfeed as much as you can because your baby’s saliva will tell your body what antibodies your baby needs to help fight off the sickness. Stay hydrated and take care of yourself too momma!

I hope you feel so much better soon! Breastfeeding as much as possible like said above my pediatrician told me breastmilk is like a natural Tylenol so if your kiddos in pain it may take it away as well :heart_hands:t2::heart_hands:t2::heart_hands:t2:
