Breastfeeding and alcohol

Hi ladies. I had two glasses of wine yesterday around 9-10pm. I did not breastfeed during the night time and pumped this morning at 8am. Is this breast milk okay to feed or should I dump it?

It will be fine to feed! I think you’d have to be v drunk for any alcohol to even affect breast milk and I think the guidelines are to wait 2 hrs to feed after a drink so it will be all good x

Alcohol in breast milk is the same as in the blood, can take the same amount of time to leave your system, you should be fine now xx

Pump and dump advice is outdated and not necessary. As long as you're sober enough to hold baby safely, it's fine to breastfeed

I got told at the hospital that one glass won't affect breast milk anyway, so I'm sure after 2 the next morning will be absolutely fine

Fine you’ve slept alcohol should be out your system x
