    After one glass of wine, you should be fine.  My LC used the "if you're sober enough to drive, you're sober enough to nurse" rule.

    One glass is fine. Nurse away!

    Same as the pp.  I was told one glass was fine.  More than that, wait a certain amount of time per drink or a while after you didn't feel "fuzzy" anymore.

    2 hours after 1 standard drink. If it was a big glass it will be more than 1 standard drink.

    Ditto. I've had 2 and was perfectly fine to nurse.

    Dr. Jack Newman says even 2 is fine without waiting to nurse.  Your baby gets such a minute percentage of alcohol it's not going to affect him/her.

    Childhood cancer (DH) + chemo + radiation = 0 sperm.
    LO #1 - 1 unmedicated/self-monitored IUI w/ donor sperm.
    LO #2 - 1 m/c, 2 BFNs, 4th IUI worked (unmedicated/self-monitored with new donor sperm).
    Life is beautiful!
