Minimizing alcohol exposure of the breastfeeding infant

P Schulte. J Hum Lact. 1995 Dec.

Abstract

What are the effects of alcohol consumed by breastfeeding women on their nursing infants? The woman's weight, whether she is amenorrheic during lactation, and the age of her baby are important considerations that influence blood alcohol concentrations and the effect of a mother's alcohol consumption.
