According to the Department of Health: 'Exclusive breastfeeding is recommended for the first six months of a baby's life. Beyond this stage, breastfeeding should continue for as long as the mother and baby wish.'.
A newborn's tummy is very small, especially in the early days. Once breastfeeding is established, exclusively breastfed babies who are 1 to 6 months old take in between 19 and 30 ounces of breastmilk each day. If you breastfeed your baby eight times a day, your baby will get around 3 ounces per feeding.But every baby is different.n most cases, you can continue to breastfeed your baby when you are sick, and if your baby is sick. But, if you are sick with the flu, including the H1N1 flu (also called the swine flu), you should avoid being near your baby, so that you do not infect him or her.
