pump & dump or fine?

if I got a little buzzed off of 2 beers (I haven’t drank since before being pregnant last fall lmao) within the last 2 hours and am now pumping, do I have to dump my milk or is it fine??

If you got buzzed, and it hasn’t been at least an hour per drink since you finished the drinks, I’d recommend you pass on feeding it to your baby. From what I recall your ABV is a main factor in how much passes to breast milk. If you’re feeling it, it’s in the milk. The anxiety of my girl potentially waking up hungry prevents me from having more than one alcoholic drink at a time :( she is EBF though. I started just drinking non alcoholic beer so I don’t have to worry, but still get to enjoy a beer here and there.

Don’t pump and dump. Save the milk and make sure to label do not feed. You can use the milk for baths & mixing with aquaphor for rashes, cradle cap, etc! Liquid Golddd

Your milk is fine, you don’t need to pump and dump. Barely any alcohol goes into breastmilk, it’s like throwing a shot of vodka into an Olympic sized swimming pool. Two beers will not have an effect. But if you don’t feel comfortable with baby drinking it, you can use it for a bath.

Pump and dump doesnt actually work

Breast feeding specialists say as long as you can safely care for baby you can safely breastfeed too, as Rhiannon said it's vodka in a swimming pool baby will not be affected by it I breastfeed and I had a couple drinks 2 weeks after she was born and still fed her fine xx
