Thanks to ChatDoctorI can understand your concern being lactating mother, you need to undergo investigations like CBP.ESR, WIDAL and MP tests .which indicate cause of fever normally but try to wane slowly the lactation for your child typhoid may repeat after 1st attack use paracetamol, antibiotic like definite o200mg for 5 days.normally it will subside .don't worry if persistent fever please check the investigations and consult your family doctor or Chat Doctor, DON'T WORRY
