Question: how long do you have to wait to breastfeed after drinking a glass of wine?
Answer: "If a mom is going to drink alcohol, she should wait at least three to four hours until breastfeeding the baby," Dr. Herway says. (The AAP says to wait a minimum of two hours.) "The amount of alcohol in breast milk is very similar to the amount in the woman's blood and alcohol is a fast-acting drug," explains Conover.
