I have a 10 month old and I am still BF him. During the 1st 6 months I avoided alcohol because it didn't feel right... when he turned 6 months and he started sleeping through the night, I started drinking 1-2 glasses of wine at night.... maybe 2-3 nights a week. Alcohol leaves your milk when it leaves your blood... it doesn't hang around in your boobs... so I knew that by morning my milk was fine.
At my BF class, they said that there is nothing wrong with having 1 glass of wine or beer... and that only 1% of what you drink ends up in your milk...
I guess each of us has to follow their instincts has no one seems to agree!!!!!! ↑ |
