Is breastfeesing srill ok when mommy is sick?

Hello parents, I'm down with a flu for almost 3days, I was ok yestersay pero mukhang nabinat because namalengke at nagbake ako g cookies the moment I felt ok. Kagabi sobrang sakit ng ulo ko, the elders say it was Binat because my head feels like splitting in two and I can't get up. However my bunso turning 1 tomorrow Dec24 will turn 1 and I'm still nursing her I never gave formula milk ever. Is it still ok to breastfeed even when I'm sick? Really cant get up to get checked

Yes, you can keep breastfeeding your baby, even if you take antiviral medicines for flu-like symptoms. A mother's breast milk is custom-made for her baby, providing antibodies that babies need to fight infection. ... Babies have a higher risk of catching the flu and having health problems from it.
