At the end of August my bf and I are going out cause obviously I couldn’t drink on my 21st birthday last month lol so I and him just want to kinda go all out with his sister and brother in law so I know I will have to prepare for the baby for that but I’ve heard different answers about a small glass of wine.
Had a small glass 24hrs after birth. Technically Still in the hospital (ds was huge so they monitored bilirubin for 48hrs) but I was discharged at that time. He was eating every 3hrs and drinking rule is 2hrs for 1 drink
The alcohol content in breast milk immediately after drinking is equivalent to a 0.0274 proof beverage. That’s like mixing 1 oz of 80 proof vodka (one shot) with 2919 oz of mixer . By the way, 2919 oz is over 70 liters. Two hours after drinking one (strong) drink the alcohol has disappeared from the sample. Completely harmless to the nursing infant. Drinking about 3 drinks in 1.5 hours resulted in higher numbers, but still negligible amounts of alcohol would be transferred to the child. One hour after imbibing in 3 drinks, the milk was the equivalent of 0.07498 proof beverage. That would be like adding 1 oz of 80 proof vodka (one shot) to 1066 oz of mixer (1066 oz is over 26 liters). Two hours after imbibing in 3 drinks, the milk was 0.01258 proof. That would be like adding 1 oz of 80 proof vodka to 3179 oz of mixer (over almost 80 liters). So, even though an infant has much less body weight, any of these percentage of alcohol in breast milk is unlikely to adversely affect the baby. Bottoms up!” "
That’s good to know actually! Cause I don’t think I’d ever go past a glass of wine at the end of my day and not even every night so all that compared to not even a full glass of wine makes me feel better lol. Thank you!

@bubbys.mommy, you’re welcome! I was really nervous about drinking since I’m breastfeeding, and that made me feel way better
