Can you drink while breastfeeding?



You can drink beverages during breastfeeding, but it is not recommended to drink more, and do not drink beverages with alcohol.

There are many kinds of beverages with different tastes, and it is OK to drink a little bit occasionally to adjust the taste during breastfeeding. However, beverages are high in sugar and low in minerals, proteins, vitamins, trace elements and other nutrients, and drinking them every day or drinking them in large quantities for a long period of time is detrimental to breastfeeding women. Alcoholic beverages can enter the baby’s body through breast milk and affect development, so alcoholic beverages should not be drunk.

After drinking beverages, you should pay attention to rinse your mouth to avoid adverse effects on teeth and mouth. Breastfeeding women should also pay attention to eating more fresh vegetables and fruits to maintain balanced nutrition. Pay attention to the posture when breastfeeding to prevent mastitis.
