Just wondeing how long it takes alcohol to leave your system after consumption so I know when it's safe to breatfeed again, also how much alcohol can really be found in your milk if you drink. I have not drank in over a year, but I plan on going out for a few beers for my hubbys 30th b-day. I plan on pumping milk for my 1 month old for the babysitter, but I just want to know if I should pump a few days worth, like how will a few beers affect my milk?

Some doctors recomend 1 beer a day to increase milk supply. I would try to only have 3 drinks tops and you will be able to nurse the next afternoon. If you plan on getting loaded (I do not recomend) you should probably give your body a good 18 hours after the last drink. Be sure to pump and dump all missed feedings so your supplies do not dwindle. I hope this helps.
