Question
Pediatrics Inquiry: On the fourth day after birth, the mother experienced nipple rupture during breastfeeding. She used a breast pump to express milk, but noticed that the expressed milk contained a pink tint and blood. Is it still safe to feed the baby with this expressed milk?
Answer
Based on the description, if the amount of expressed milk is considerable and the blood is only present in small amounts, it may be considered safe to feed the baby. However, if the blood is more apparent, it is recommended not to feed the baby to avoid any potential impact on their health.
