FTam here. My husband and I had a wine and movie night last night after my LO was asleep for the night. I ended up having an entire bottle of wine! When do you think would be an acceptable time for me to BF? I had refrigerated BM bottles on hand last night and today. I had my last drink around 1030 last night and BF the first time today around 11:30 am. My husband thought this was plenty of time to have the alcohol leave my system, but I'm doubting myself still. Thoughts?
Re: Breastfeeding and Alcohol
All that said, if I drink I wait until I am no longer buzzed before I breastfeed.
I have had a beer at a time a few times since baby. Since it is only one drink I have not waited to feed and just let LO eat whenever they are ready
@cls2015 I have heard exactly the same thing!! My LC said "if you are sober, your milk is sober!" She said people over use the term "pump & dump" cause it rhymes lol
