Imagine warming up for a sporting event or some sort of activity that you haven’t tried before.

Do you think you will do well if you’re in an exposed, semi-public place full of strangers who are getting in the way of your body being able to do its thing, shaming you for its size, and expressing doubt in your ability?

How about if you were instead getting ready in a warm, safe, quiet place where the people around you are cheering you on, following your cues, and telling you that you’re amazing and can do this?

It’s the same with birth.

As the warm weather is finally here you may be thinking about chilling in the garden with a nice cool drink 🍹

If you're planning to make that an alcoholic drink, the main things to remember are:

- You can have occasional, small amounts of alcohol but should not drink regularly or heavily (e.g. binge drinking) without considering how to limit the baby’s exposure.

- If you drink any alcohol DO NOT bed share with your baby or fall asleep in the sofa/chair with them.

- It is not necessary to express breastmilk to clear it of alcohol. But you may want to express a little for comfort.

Drinking alcohol reduces the ability of a parent to be aware of their baby’s needs, whether they're breastfeeding or not. So it's safest to ask someone else to care for the baby if you are drinking more than a small amount.

If you want more information on drinking alcohol while breastfeeding, check out The Breastfeeding Network Drugs in Breastmilk Service factsheet:
