Mothers shouldn’t consume alcohol and breastfeed their babies. Many know this, and due to this, they look for fast ways to rid their body of alcoholic content. A popular wrong technique is to pump and dump. It means a mother who takes alcohol will get a breast pump and start to release breast milk, thinking it will reduce the alcohol content in her body. This method of pump and dump doesn’t work. Alcohol will only leave your breast milk when it has cleared from your bloodstream. While a mother might look for fast ways out because she feels the urge to feed her child, it is unsafeâthe best way out to plan before taking a drink.
