[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My babies were immune to all articles in the house up till about 6 months. It's not crazy to assume this. Breast feeding helps provide antibodies from the mother.[/quote] But if the mother doesn't have antibodies to a virus, then she can't confer them to the baby, which is why you should shield your newborn from sick and even potentially sick people. We spent Christmas as a nuclear family when we had a newborn, and certainly only allowed people over who were free of illness, despite the fact that I was breastfeeding. I know it's too late for the OP to give this advice, but others should heed it in the future.[/quote]
