Can You Drink Alcohol While Breastfeeding?
Breastfeeding FAQs
It is safest to avoid alcohol while breastfeeding. The level of alcohol in your bloodstream passes directly into your breast milk. This blood alcohol level can stay there for several hours, so it’s difficult to determine if your blood alcohol level has cleared from your breast milk before breastfeeding. Any alcohol can harm your baby.
