pump and dump?

I went to brunch from 12-3. I had 5 mimosas during this time (I know, maybe a little excessive). Anyway, It is now after 6. I have pumped and dumped once. Do you think I need to do it again to be safe?

Thanks! I feel fine so it probably isn't an issue, but I certainly don't want to hurt LO!

from everything i have read, pumping and dumping is unnecessary. alcohol in your breast milk is like it is in your blood, you have to wait for it to clear out. like an hour per drink i believe. the only reason to pump and dump is to prevent engorgement. anywho, i'd say give it another hour and i'd feel safe if i were you. you might even be ok now depending on how strong they were.

ETA: ugh stupid bump directing me to 0-3, thought i was in 3rd tri. sorry!  

hahaha I was lurking over here & this cracks me up!
