Hi, Mothers of newborns , should be extra careful about drinking, as the baby's brain is still developing and very vulnerable, and may hinder their motor development . "If a mom is going to drink alcohol, she should wait at least three to four hours until breastfeeding the baby. The amount of alcohol in breast milk is very similar to the amount in the woman's blood and alcohol is a fast-acting drug. So it is better for a nursing mother to avoid or limit the consumption of alcohol only on some occasion.
