Question

Is it necessary to wait 9 minutes after using the restroom before breastfeeding? If so, in what cases can one be lenient, such as if the baby is hungry or if one needs to leave and wants to breastfeed already?

Answer

Hello 

One can be lenient when the baby is hungry.

One should consider the opinions that our restrooms are not considered 'Beit HaKise', along with those who are lenient in cases of distress for the baby.
