I would ask your doctor, I breastfed both of my daughters and have takin classes and read the books, and never once heard of something like that. Especially a contagious infection effecting several people, how would something like that even spread? Sounds fishy

??? What class was that. And how can it effect all women.
I doubt this is accurate. My daughter is 1 month and I exclusively breastfeed and have never heard of this
