Should I dump?

I went to a concert on Saturday night (NKOTB!!) and got a little tipsy....okay, a lot tipsy!  I somehow managed to pump when I got home that night and haven't had the heart to throw it out yet.  It's probably not a good idea to give to the baby, right? I've heard of people saying the alcohol evaporates if you leave it out with the cap off for a bit?

    So jealous you got to go!!  I almost bought tickets.  My mom was in town or I so would have been there!

    I'd dump it.  I'd rather be safe than sorry.  It's always painful when I lose BM.  I just think to  myself this is a fraction of what my baby will eat from me in the course of a year.  HTH!

    Something I do sometimes is freeze it and when you do plan to use it, WAYYYY dilute it with other thawed breastmilk so that you can still use it but the alcohol content will be much lower. You can get those breast milk test strips to make sure you've diluted it enough.
