Breastfeeding

Drinking and breastfeeding

Previous post has me thinking.  If it is medically OK to have a glass of wine every now and then during pregnancy then why do we need to pump and dump if we have a glass of wine while breastfeeding?  I understand if you drink over 1 glass at a time.  But one glass really?

  • One glass you don't have to pump and dump, who told you that?  Feed your baby, have a glass of wine - everything will be ok.

    I know this to be true...just trying to make others realize that they don't have to dump their liquid gold after having just one glass of wineSmile

  • Also, alcohol doesn't stay in your milk. it goes through your sytem.  save ur milk until youre not buzzed- (if you even drink to that point).  I read this in some breast feeding form.  A glass or two wont do harm.
