Dear Ask The Doctor: Is it ok to have two glasses of red wine daily while breastfeeding Dear HILARY: No, 1 or 2 alcohol drinks daily could be harmful for your child. Remember that you will pass a small percentage of everything that you ingest to your baby through breastfeeding, but daily alcohol could harm your baby’s immature liver. You should not drink more than 1-2 units of alcohol per week. A breastfeeding mother should also avoid breastfeeding 2-3 hours after drinking alcohol. I hope I cleared your doubt. |
