From this article, http://www.babycenter.com/0_alcohol-and-breastfeeding_3547.bc the same amount of alcohol that goes into your bloodstream will go into your breastmilk as well. Infants are unable to process alcohol as quickly as adults. It can affect their sleeping and eating. It takes 2 hours at the very least (the time varies from person to person) for the alcohol to leave the bloodstream. If you want to enjoy a glass of wine, you can feed your baby with expressed breastmilk and wait for at least 2 hours before you breastfeed. http://sg.theasianparent.com/breastfeeding-diet-faq/
