Our baby is just 3 weeks old and my wife got mumps. The doctor gave a medicine called "Kaltrofen" and told her to drink plenty of fluids and rest.
We have asked 2 doctors and they said it is safe to breastfeed while the mother have mumps.
We are quite skeptical on this, so my wife decided to pump and feed the milk from the bottle.
We have a friend who got mumps, she also pumped and the child did not get it.
Be healthy and don't get mumps...it's hell, cause u can't eat anything.
Do ask your own doctor before you breastfeed if you have mumps.
Hope this helps....
