Have you had trouble understanding the recommendations around alcohol and breastfeeding?
Alcohol passes freely into milk and has been found to peak about 30 to 60 minutes after consumption, 60 to 90 minutes when drunk with food. But what does that mean? This does not mean that your milk has as much alcohol as an alcoholic beverage. It does mean that your breastmilk has as much alcohol as your blood after an alcoholic beverage. For instance, a Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) of 0.10 (0.10% or one tenth of one percent) means that there is 0.10% alcohol content in your milk. You can compare that to the typical glass of wine which is 11-13% alcohol content or liquor which is 28-60% alcohol content.

[Image: Photo of a glass cocktail. Text: Thinking of drinking alcohol while nursing? Alcohol is present in breastmilk at the same levels as it is present in the nursing parent's blood. As alcohol leaves the bloodstream, it also leaves breastmilk, so there is rarely a need to pump and dump.]
