Sorry to misunderstand, Cassandra. I don't think there is any/very much
evidence on this. A quick google scholar search revealed not very much ...
A couple of case studies which describe this phenomenon as very rare. A
sensible guess would be to wait until mum is asymptomic. Meanwhile, an
elemental formula is probably indicated. The first breastfeed should be
treated as a formal challenge and take place in a medically supervised
environment with full resusc facility.
What a nightmare ...
