It was over several hours at an all day event. Wouldn't usually drink this much of a Saturday afternoon. I had planned to give DS expressed milk in a bottle for his feeds after I started drinking, which I did. I didn't really feel inebriated at any point but DH had agreed to be the designated carer of DS for the day and he stayed sober. When we got home I still felt fine to give DS his dinner, do some housework etc. at bedtime, DS didn't want a bottle and just screamed. So I gave him boob. DH and another sober friend were also at home. Once DS was sleeping I stayed up a few more hours, had dinner, watched tv etc.
I have read that you should wait 2hrs per unit before breastfeeding but I have also read that the amount of alcohol in breastmilk is negligible and that you'd have to be totally wasted for it to have any affect. A mantra I read "If you're not too drunk to care for your baby, you're not to drunk to breastfeed." True or not?
