Can I have a drink while breastfeeding???? #thesemyxsangiraiscallingmyname
@nicemmcha2015, I'm just going off of my personal experience. I had half a beer and it affected my daughter over an hour later when I fed her.
@brynden.nicholle.0716, @fabulousmommieof2 , pumping and dumping is 100% unnecessary. alcohol metabolizes in your milk at the same rate that it does in your blood. pumping snd dumping is a waste of time and milk. once it's out of your blood it's out of your milk as well. safe to drive = safe to nurse.
No need to pump n dump...if u are ok to drive u can feed there are also test strips u can use if worried
Oh ok so my next pump session I dump and then the next one after that do I still dump too
yeah. I had half a Blue Moon and my daughter was out almost the entire day...
Oh ok @brynden.nicholle.0716, I just had 1 drink so I still gotta pump and dump
Basically pump half a day's worth or even 2 feedings worth so that baby can eat that... then after your drink, pump instead of having baby latch on and toss that milk.
you can...if you pump. If you don't pump....you will end up with a drunk baby. (I accidentally did that once).
I drank two beers on the fourth of July and about an hour later I had to nurse...my buzz was gone so I went ahead and fed my baby. She was fine and alert the whole time, so no need to pump and dump. just time your feedings and consumption right and you should be ok, and of course don't get wasted (obviously lol) in that case you would want to feed baby milk you have previously pumped...(duh) 😉
