Question
What should I do if I breastfeed after drinking a bottle of beer and the baby sleeps all day?
Answer
Hello, it’s best to avoid drinking alcohol during breastfeeding as it can impact the quality of breast milk and pass on to the baby. If you’ve accidentally consumed alcohol, it’s suggested not to breastfeed for at least a day after drinking and to use milk as a substitute during that time. After one day, once the alcohol has been metabolized out of your system, it’s safer to resume breastfeeding.
