I believe that you should try your best to help the baby survive, as well as you can. Survival of self must always come first, as the baby would die without you anyway. If the baby comes between you and survival, then it's days are numbered no matter what you do. Without a sufficient amount of food you would not be able to produce the milk the baby needs either.

The history of humanity reflects a value placed on life, even in tough times we will try to help our fellows out. But when the shit really hits the fan it's every man for himself. It's a very good survival strategy. Reproducers can usually make more babies, whereas babies do a terrible job of self sustenance.
