So what's the rule with drinking and breastfeeding? I've heard pump and dump, not to pump and dump, to wait 2 hours for every drink, idk I've heard a ton of different things. What do you moms do when you want to have a few glasses of wine, or a mixed drink? I want some mimosas lol
my doc said you dont have to pump and dump if you drink at max the amount of alcohol that gets transfered to the baby is only about 10% of what you drink and not enough to effect the baby
I got these strips that test your breastmilk for alcohol. I got them off amazon and they totally work. I tested them on thanksgiving I got really good buzz going and it showed up positive. Then the other night I had a glass of wine with dinner and it showed up negative. You have to drink quite a bit for it to get in your milk so I think having a few glasses of wine or a mixed drink is fine and then just wait a few hours before you nurse. But I would get the strips to help give you peace of mind 😊
if your sober enough to drive you are sober enough to breastfeed. that's what I was told.
2 drinks is usually fine. don't gotta worry about it unless you're shitfaced lol
There is this girl on here (cannot remember who) but hopefully she reads this! She posted a medical article about this exact thing. I'll try to find it and if I do, I'll comment it for you 😊
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
