I checked the archives and can't find information on this:
When a mom who has had chicken pox is breastfeeding her 9 month old, I
understand the chicken pox outbreak may not be as severe as in a non-bf baby.
My question is about the affect breastmilk would have on a 4 year old who
also has chicken pox. Would the 4 yo need to breastfeed more than once a day
to receive any benefit from the breastmilk (affecting the severity of the
chicken pox infection)?
Thanks!
