Can a child be weaned from breastfeeding at one week old?

Patient's question:

My child has just been weaned for a week. If I stop breastfeeding, will my child's immunity be affected? I'm also a diabetic. If I focus on breastfeeding, my blood sugar might be high. So I'm struggling with whether to wean or not.

Doctor's answer:

Dear Inquirer,
According to your description, you are unable to focus on breastfeeding due to health reasons. You can opt for artificial feeding, which can still provide the necessary nutrients for your baby's growth and development. There is no need for excessive concerns.
This is the advice regarding the question, "Is it okay to stop breastfeeding if my baby has just been born for a week?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you health and happiness every day.
