Hi
my friend (this really is my friend, not me!) can't say no to getting pretty drunk about once a week, but is very anxious about breastfeeding her dd, who is fifteen months old and usually wakes once a night for a feed.
I said that I doubted that a baby of this age, who was mainly on solids, would be harmed by 'boozy' milk once a week.
Was I right? I'm not sure if my thoughts on this matter had any basis in medical fact.My friend claims that her little one tends to sleep pretty soundly after a drink of whiskey-laced breastmilk. But surely the amount of alcohol in the milk would be too low to have any effect?
