Immune System and Breastfeeding

[Guest guest]

Dear all,

I know we've discussed immune system probably to death here, but I still have

one more

question.

My 8 months old is sick second time this month. Last time he got sick, then I

got sick, then

my husband. Not long after that the baby is sick again and I'm sick too and my

husband is

starting to get sore throat. I'm being told by some people that it's normal for

babies to be

sick that often, but I think that's an absurd. But I just can't figure out what

am I doing

wrong????? He is home-born with no drugs, no vax, exclusively breastfed, we

started solid

at 6.5 month - mostly fruits and veggies, some kefir, egg yolk etc but his main

food is still

breastmilk. I try to eat mostly NT with occasional slip-ups (nobody is perfect),

raw milk,

chicken and bone broths, garlic, kefir, take fish oils and CLO, vitamins, extra

vitamin C,

drink a ton of fluids and take Bio-Kult (4-6 a day, sometimes more). And I'm

sick second

time this months! It's the craziest thing - I never get sick!!!! Can it be that

breastfeeding is

putting a strain on my immune system??? Do I have to choose between being

healthy and

nourishment for my baby. But if I'm sick, I'm sure I'm not producing good enough

milk

anyway. Well, I know it's better then formula, but I'm starting to doubt myself.

I really don't know. What am I doing wrong????

Thanks,

Elena
