Through a series of miscommunications, DH and I ended up in my familys Christmas exchange. I got my cousins wife who I see maybe 3 times a year. I was thinking about getting her a bottle of wine but I know she is BF. Now I know you can drink alcohol while BF but I'm wondering if most people do this or I should just get her something else?
Re: Wine for BF mom?
I, personally, would love it. Is there any way you can be sneaky and figure out if she has had any wine while she has been BFing? If you can't figure it out, I might go for something else... a pedicure maybe?
I bf'd and still drank wine (and other alcohol- gasp). However, I was surprised to see that a friend of mine who is nursing told me she is not drinking at all until she is done bf'ing. I didn't think people were that strict about it. I would think you'd be okay.
