Best Answer

E. coli and other intestinal bacteria could be transmitted if mom has poor hygiene. E. coli is passed by the fecal-oral route and is in the normal intestinal flora. When E. coli is found in food it generally comes from fecal contamination. What typically makes a person ill is not the bacterial infection but the poisoning from the breakdown of the dead bacteria.

If mom has a systemic infection of E. coli, she is at death's door and is not thinking about breast feeding.

Is it safe to supplement with formula while breast feeding?

Yes you can switch to formula. However, its better to breast feed the baby because breast milk can help in the development in the baby's immune system. Plus the best thing about breast feeding your baby is that it really helps the mother lose a lot of weight after the baby is born. But if you are breast feeding make sure to keep an eye on your baby to decrease a chance of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome), the mother's breast may "smother" her baby by accident. while the baby is being fed, if the baby is held too tight to the breast of the mother, she may be covering its nose and the baby may not be able to breath and suffocate.

Why does baby cry at the breast when fed?

If the baby cries whilst feeding it could be the fact the baby's airway is being blocked by your breast. Press on your breast a little to make sure the baby's nose is not being covered by your breast. If you are uptight the baby can sense this too. So make yourself comfortable prior to feeding, and relax at all costs.
