Breast Feeding in Suspected or Confirmed Cases of COVID 19-a New Perspective
1Department of OBG, Kempegowda Institute of Medical Sciences and Research Institute, V. V. Puram, Bangalore, 560004 India.
The encounter with the rampant novel Corona virus infection has led the healthcare system across the world to update and modify its tools to fight this pandemic. Pregnancy, childbirth and breast feeding are a set of special situations to be dealt in women afflicted with Covid-19. Currently there is no universal consensus on managing the issue of breast feeding with rooming-in of the neonates in women with suspected or confirmed Covid-19. Literature is still evolving with contradictory guidelines from various authorities across the globe. This review intends to analyse the available evidence on managing breast feeding in such women and to derive a practically plausible approach in handling such situations.
