I can't believe people buy this product. If you can drive, you can nurse. If you have A GLASS of wine, there is no reason to "pump and dump" at all.

Some moms have a pretty high stress level. Guess for those women, better safe than sorry.

Testing for alcohol in breastmilk is completely unnecessary (it is a very common misconception). Alcohol leaves your milk supply at the same rate that it leaves your bloodstream. If you're safe to drive, you're safe to breastfeed. Another misconception about breastfeeding is that it's necessary to "pump and dump". Mums -- you do not need to do this. Again, as long as you're safe to drive you're safe to breastfeed.

@chatabox0girl Way to push your baby to do something that he is not ready to do. You must have not researched the bumbo before buying it.

@theoriginalbeeka... You are so right! Why would you want to force you baby to do something to do when it is obviously not ready! The Bumbo is a bad idea!

[chatabox0girl]

Those things are pretty stupid. If you can drive you can breastfeed. And if you have had so much that you need to test you milk... then maybe you shouldn't be breastfeeding. 1 or 2 glasses of wine/beer isn't going to harm your baby. And if your doc DOES reccommend a beer for stress reduction, what are you going to do then? Not feed your screaming baby until the test strip says so? That sounds like more stress!

@theoriginalbeeka I find the bumbo very useful and my 3mo loves it! He is too little to sit by himself yet, but when sitting in a swing or rocker its on to much of an incline when he wants to sit straight up. He will keep trying to pull his head and neck up which is a strain for him. So the Bumbo really helps. However.. I agree that the breastmilk tester is a stupid idea.

Just don't drink you bunch of alcoholics!
