Depends on how much u drink. But yes u can buy strips and test ur milk or pump once and discharge it before feeding baby. There are safe ways around having a drink or two speak with ur Dr.

I did something really dumb today and now I'm scared. I was unclogging a toilet when some of the water splashed my hands. I have open wounds on my hands. When I looked down into the toilet I saw some used blood glucose test strips. I didn't see any blood. I immediately washed my hands with plenty of soap. About 1-3 minutes later I washed my hands again 3 times. About 10 minutes after that I washed my hands twice more and disinfected them with alcohol.

Buy the alcohol test strips for testing breastmilk there fairly cheap and its better then guessing all u do is pump dip the test strip and it reads if there is any alcohol In your milk or not they sell them at target baby's r us and online

You should buy some alcohol test strips, they sell then at walmart. That way even after you pump and dump you can still check to make sure there isn't any alcohol in the breast milk.

Buy the testing strips. They test for alcohol in your breast milk.

Pump and dump for a day.

t feel tipsy and number and the breast milk will be free of alcohol. I guess as your body is able to metabolize the alcohol from your blood it does the same with the milk? Anyone use the breast milk test strips?

Alcohol in your milk is the same as in your blood, you have to wait for it to wear off. Pump a few bottles before you drink and use the test strips after, but don't rely on pump and dump.

You can still breastfeed they make strips to test milk for alcohol so pump and check if it has alcohol dump it and try again in a couple hours until it clears or system alcohol might stay for 24 hrs I think

I am lead to believe pumpin and dumping doesn't work. The alcohol stays in your milk while its in your system. When you sober up, your milk should be fine. But i would definitely recommend alcohol test strips to be safe.

There are alcohol test strips u can buy to make sure drink lots of water and eat something too and u only need to pump n dump if u become engorged the pumping out alcohol thing is a myth if its in ur blood its just gonna keep going in the new milk made

So i boughta box of those test strips that test for alcohol in breastmilk and i had one drink last night at 10 pm i tested my milk again 15 hours later and it is still showing alcohol in my milk could they be wrong. I just cant imagine there being alcohol after that many hours for just one small drink.

One of nurse took my blood sugar using the lancet, lancet is new and strips is new, the nurse forgot to wipe alcohol in my skin and started to use the lancet, theres a possibilities to contract hepa in this way, Thank you

I breastfed my babies and still engaged in a night out on the town with my husband here and there. The best thing to do is pump right before...drink and have fun...when ready, pump that milk out...throw it out, it's guarantee to have alcohol in it. The next pump is worth testing, using those alcohol test strips sold in stores, if it's clear...cool, if not dump that and test the next batch. Eventually, your milk will be free of alcohol and you can go back to nursing.

You have to pump and through it out. They have test strips that can test the milk and see if alcohol is still present.

you should be fine, but they do make strips to test your breastmilk for alcohol.

Yep about two hours per drink. Pump and dump. Plus they sell test strips at babies r us if you want to try that.

They make little test strips that you can use to see if any alcohol got in the breast milk - to put your mind at ease :)

Go to walgreens or cvs and they sell strips to test your milk for alcohol, that way you dont end up throwing away perfectly good milk :)

The only way to ensure milk purity is to allow time for alcohol to leave your bloodstream, which takes way more than 2 hours. Milkscreen strips provide quick, accurate results so you know right away if it is safe to nurse your baby or offer an alternative food such as pre-stored expressed milk. I might have to get some of these.

There's a limit and I'm almost 100% positive that she passed it! There are alcohol test strips that you can use to test the alcohol that is coming through your milk supply! If it's over then you may as well be filling a bottle up with alcohol and giving it to your.

Ok, so after having a miscarriage 6 weeks ago i used ovulation test strips and found out i"m ovulating again. What are your thoughts on alcohol consumption during the 2 week wait between ovulating and finding out if you"re pregnant? Thanks.

Be sure your meter is calibrated to the test strips. On the outside of the test strip container is a number. Set the meter to that number. Verify on occasion the meters viability with the test solution supplied. 2. Doesn't matter which finger you use, just be sure it is cleaned prior to using the lancet. A contaminated finger and/or one that is not completely dry will get you a false/positive result.

is this necessary? do i need the glucose test if my blood sugar test came back just fine??? thanks for the help !

t need to pump and dump at all. You can compare breastmilk to blood when drinking. If alcohol is out of your blood its ok to breatfeed. A very small percentage of alcohol goes into breastmilk also. You could always do he strips but it costs a good bit. I just always kept track with time.
