What precautions should I take regarding dehydration as I am breastfeeding my 6 month old baby?

Hello ma'am, I'm sorry to read about your troubles!

The same precautions are used here: take Tylenol for the fever and hydrate a lot with a few sips every 5 to 10 minutes.

Favour light foods such as soups, broths, toast with butter, crackers, eggs, etc. And avoid heavy or sweet foods such as red meat and undiluted fruit juices.

If the fever persists for 72 hours or if you are unable to eat, you should go to the emergency room.

I will remain available if you have any further questions!

Sincerely,

Tom Samaha, pharmacist
