Question about Pumping and Drinking

Hey everyone!

I had my baby at 28 weeks and 5 days via C-section, and he is now a whole month old since yesterday! He’s been in the NICU since then, an hour away, so I’ve been pumping every 3-4 hours and getting a pretty decent supply.

My question is, is it okay if I enjoy at least one drink after I pump? When I spoke with my LC, they kind of made me feel bad for wanting to drink at all, and they said I should pump and dump after even one drink. Reading through the forums here it seems there’s scattering opinions. Is it because he’s in the NICU, and I shouldn’t risk it?

I‘ll do anything or not even consider it if it means the health of my baby. I was just seeing here what everyone else thinks. Thanks!
