How safe is it for a nursing to breastfeed after taking the covid shots?
Based on the evidence available so far and knowledge of how COVID-19 vaccines work, vaccinating a breastfeeding mother to protect her from COVID-19 poses no risk to her infant. Breastfeeding mothers who have received the COVID-19 vaccine have antibodies in their milk, which could even help to protect their babies from infection with the virus.
Breastfeeding women can get the covid vaccination, and it seems to provide protection for her baby as well. My wife got the jabs while breastfeeding, she’s still very much fine with the baby and it’s been 5months already. So I can say it is safe. But you can consult your doctor first before making such decision.
