If a child is born in the US, with rare exception, it is granted US
citizenship.   If the mother is not in the US legally, she may be deported.
She has the right to continue breastfeeding.  It just means that the baby
has to go with her.  By leaving the US with its mother, the baby does not
relinquish its US citizenship.
