[Mummyto2boysand3girls]

I want to drink Alcohol tonight as have got family over ..i express 1 5oz bottle of milk aday for my ds .all his other feeds are formula..is it safe to drink while expressing ?

Yes, of course.

Do you mean for the baby? Or that you might get so plastered you attach the pump to your nose?

If you want to limit the tinsy winsy amount of alcohol that gets into the milk then it is useful to know that it peaks in your blood/milk about an hour after you have drunk it, - so you might like to avoid expressing at this time.

i mean for my ds ..i will probably get drunk on 2 bottles of alcohol as i havent drank for a while lol

thanks i feel much better now and shall open my 1st bottle
