We do not know for sure if mothers with COVID-19 can spread the virus to babies in their breast milk, but the limited data available suggest this is not likely. If you have COVID-19 and choose to breastfeed, wear a cloth face covering while breastfeeding and wash your hands before each feeding. If you have COVID-19 and choose to express breast milk. Use a dedicated breast pump. Wear a cloth face covering during expression and wash your hands before touching any pump or bottle parts and before expressing breast milk. After each use, clean all parts of the breast pump that come into contact with breast milk. If possible, expressed breast milk should be fed to the infant by a healthy caregiver who does not have COVID-19, is not at high-risk for severe illness from COVID-19, and is living in the same home.
