The concentration of alcohol in your milk closely follows the concentration of alcohol in your blood.
Alcohol gets into your breastmilk from your blood, moving freely from the blood to the breastmilk (and back out again). Alcohol will be in your breastmilk 30 to 60 minutes after you start drinking.

A number of factors affect how much alcohol gets into your breastmilk, including:
- the strength and amount of alcohol in your drink
- what and how much you’ve eaten
- how much you weigh
- how quickly you are drinking.

As a general rule, it takes 2 hours for an average woman to be free of the alcohol from 1 standard alcoholic drink and therefore 4 hours for 2 drinks, 6 hours for 3 drinks and so on. The time is taken from the start of drinking. The Feed Safe app can help you work out these times more accurately.
To know when your breastmilk is free of alcohol, download and use the Feed Safe app.
