After you drink you should pump and dump twice or three times?

Alright thank you! @killxj0y

Yes definitely! If you drink and just don't breastfeed for 24 hours and use some of your stash you'll definitely be fine

Alright I have a lot saved up already he has enough for 2 days without me saving anymore. I don't plan on drinking a lot. I just want to be extra extra safe rather than sorry! @killxj0y

3-4 hours, if you drink to the point of intoxication, even sight intoxication, wait until you don't feel the effects anymore

So how long should I wait to give my son my breast milk? @killxj0y

Pumping and dumping doesn't remove the alcohol from your milk, my doctor said as it leaves your bloodstream it also leaves your milk so I would only pump and dump if your breasts are getting full to the point of discomfort or if you're planning on drinking for a little while and don't want your supply to decrease

Alright thank you ! @babes101116

You will honestly probably be fine. I drank 2 mikes hard lemonades the other night, and tested my milk an hour later and the rest strip came back negative. I still pumped and dumped to be safe, and then tested again two hours later and it was negative again so I went on with nursing.

Safe to drive, safe to nurse. Be careful with those strips, I've heard of a lot of false positives. One or two drinks will not hurt baby.

@forever223,

That is a smart idea! I'm not drinking a lot 2 mixed drinks that's it.

Depends on how much you drank. My suggestion is to buy those milk testing strips so you aren't wasting precious breast milk.
