can I drink if I'm breastfeeding ?

Question

My son is almost 4 months old. My boyfriend wanted to buy me a drink since we're at San Francisco for vacation. Am I able to drink even though I'm still breastfeeding my son ?

Answer

Yup you can bf again as soon as you're sober. If you can drive you can feed. And target sells strips that will test your milk for alcohol if you're worried

Answer

Sober to drive, sober to feed!
I would drink maybe glass of wine or a beer and then wait 2 hrs before feeding/pumping when I was bf-ing

Answer

I used to nurse my daughter at wine tastings. If you drink like a grown up your body metabolizes etoh and very little of it gets into the milk.
