No. The stoppage of any feeding, breast or formula, takes place when NEC is suspected or confirmed. Resting of the intestinal tract and antibiotics are the main therapies for NEC. The baby may not be able to feed for a minimum of seven days in suspected NEC. If NEC is confirmed, a minimum of ten to fourteen days is required.
Will I be able to breastfeed my baby during this(NEC) illness?
