If covid with baby/newborn

Hi mummies, if we’re covid positive but baby still negative, is it still safe to continue breastfeed baby or pump the milk and feed baby? Or we need to be separated from baby? Can we still sleep with baby ? And need to isolate myself from baby #FTM

I donned 2 masks and air the house as much as I can when I’m back home with them. Really no choice because both my kids needed me to sleep. They didn’t get Covid from me but my husband got it from me & passed to them because he wasn’t as particular about wearing masks as I was.
