Question

Can a baby who is breastfeeding while the mother has had alcohol be vaccinated?

Answer

Hello, as long as the amount of alcohol consumed is not excessive, generally speaking, it does not pose a significant problem for the child’s vaccination. Alcohol can be absorbed by the child through breast milk, so breastfeeding mothers should avoid eating spicy and irritating foods (such as chili, garlic, pepper, curry, strong tea, and alcohol) both during their child’s vaccination and in daily life. It is recommended to drink plenty of water to accelerate the body’s metabolism and expel alcohol as soon as possible. Maintain a light and balanced diet and ensure adequate rest.
