Discussions and Frequently Asked Questions
------------------------------------------------------------------
Does a baby get sick if the mother is sick and breastfeeds?
Key Response: Breastfeeding (exclusively if baby is under 6 months) should be continued even if mother is not well.
If the child is ill, should their diet be supplemented with other food?
Key Response: The frequency of breastfeeding should be increased- as a sick child needs more nutritious and easily digestible food. Exclusive breastfeeding for infants up to 6 months of age should be continued.
Shouldn't I stop if the child breastfeeds for too long?
Key Response: Breastfeed as many times as the child demands and for as long as s/he wants. Do not rush the breast feeding. When the baby feeds longer, he /she gets larger amounts of important fat rich hind milk. The more you breastfeed, the more milk you will produce.

A baby could also be suckling (and drawing out milk) because the baby is seeking comfort, and wants to be cuddled.
