What staph? Who cares? Staph aureus or Staph epi, the mother should
have been breastfeeding or the milk being given to the baby. The
antibiotics do not contraindicate breastfeeding. Why is she on
antibiotics anyways? To get rid of the staph? You can't do it. And
there is no reason to.
Mother should get the baby to the breast as soon as possible.
