Breast feeding should be continued.

Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir.

I understand your query and concern.

Your wife needs to consume foods rich in vitamin c and antioxidants under the present circumstances.

Foods like pomegranate,apple,oatmeal,oranges should form the preliminary diet.

Breast feeding should be continued as it forms the main food for the baby.

Thank you.
