After a bad day, DD had her 4 month injections today and had a bit of a bad reaction, DH brought a bottle of red wine home for us to relax with. I normally express one feed a day for DH to do the dream feed with so having a couple of glasses not a problem as DD normally sleeps until 7am no problem. I just sneaked into her room to take her temp while she was asleep, we have one of those point at the head thermometers. I disturbed her and she woke crying. I tried to ssshh her for a bit but it didn't work as it was only half an hour to an hour to her DF and she was hungry. Without thinking I fed her, thinking DH with get her bottle ready and finish her feed. She has had paracetamol at 11am and Ibuprofen at 2pm but nothing else as she calmed down and so did her temp. Is it going to react with the alcohol? I am really worried, I just didn't think!!! I don't normally drink at all at the moment. i can't believe I was so stupid! Will it be OK?

Sorry it's a bit of a ramble I'm worried

2 hours is peak alchohol content, but really, it's so small that unless you were shitfaced it won't do any harm.

don't worry!

Chica can I ask when you express for DF as I want to try this soon.

How many weeks old was your LO when you started?

BTW i was told 2-4 units of alcohol was harmless anyway
