Dear , This is Dr. S. Tomar from healthcaremagic.com's medical team and I ll be your medical advisor for this question. First of all thank you for sharing your concern with us and showing trust on us.
Yes you can feed your baby for sure . As this bacteria can not transmit through breast milk so its safe to breastfeed . This bacteria is present in urine and stools of infected person so its highly advised to maintain proper hygiene by washing hands properly . As far as medicines are concerned so antibiotics will pass through the breast milk but breastfeeding should be continued. Breastfeeding is only beneficial and will not cause any harm . Your treatment should be done with cephalosporins group of antibiotics considering breastfeeding issue . You can discuss on these points with your healthcare providers.

This is my initial response and discussion is open until you have any query or need further clarification.
I wish you good health .
Thank you for your question and feel free to contact further for any question .
sincerely,
