BF related ?

Tell me if I'm being paranoid or not. SInce yesterday was my bday I decided I wasn't going to BF so I could have a couple drinks and not worry about it. From about 6p-1230a I had 4 drinks. I pumped and dumped in the meantime. When S woke up in the morning, 730a, I did nurse but I felt bad about it. Like my milk was still contaminated. I've read that whatever you feel is what your milk is (if I'm buzzed my milk is "Buzzed". I didn't feel anything but still just worries me.

Next ?: my right boob is all red. Like about half of it. It's the one I have had problems with clogged ducts before. It doesn't seem to be cloggednow  and it doesn't hurt but is it normal to just be red for no reason?

Thanks ladies!

  • I'm sure your milk is fine. If it concerns you, they do sell medilla milk test strips that you can dunk in pumped milk to make sure there isn't any alcohol in it.
  • I'm sure your milk is fine too...the redness might not be great, though. My "problem" breast got really red and sore both times I had mastitis.  Keep an eye on it, and nurse and pump as often as you normally would.

  • You can buy the test strips, but I'm skeptical about how acurate they are.  I went out one night didn't have too much to drink and at 2 p.m. the next day it still said there was alcohol which I doubted.
