37.4C isn't considered a fever, but yes, you can still breastfeed if you have one. You can take the normal Panadol that has only paracetamol (500mg) to bring your fever down. If you do have a cold, wear mask to reduce chances of the little one catching what you have. Besides, you're producing antibodies that will help the baby be more resistant to what you're having, when you breast feed them while not feeling well.
