Patient's question:
Listeriosis infection in the mother, recovered after 10 days of penicillin treatment, can the child breastfeed?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if a listeria-infected mother is not in the acute phase, she can breastfeed. It is recommended to wait until treatment is complete before breastfeeding the child. You can first express the breast milk and let the child transition to formula milk for a while. You can consult your attending physician.
