I got reallyu sick while on vacation once, vomiting and diarrhea. I could hardly sit up except to try and BF and while doing so had to use all will power to not vomit on the baby, sometimes have to stop run to bathroom. It was terrible. But as we were away in an all inclusive resort I BF so that the baby would not eat any food ( he ewas about 9 months old). BF baby your baby gets all the antibodies you are making to whatever is making you sick so it is definatly better to BF than stop.

I have to agree about the mask. Unless you are using a very specific type of mask that is properly fitted to you, there really is no point. You breathe virus right through those regular paper masks, they are only a false sense of security. I have sometimes seen people wering these on the street in HK. I don't know if they are sick and trying to not pass it around, or if they are germaphobes who think it will protect them, but either way the mask is not doing anything.
