Do you know what fraction of the alcohol gets into the breast milk? I'm not
criticizing you for having a beer, I'd guess the amount of alcohol would be
too low to pose much risk to Tom at all. But, I thought you might know,
since you are breast feeding and drinking a bit. For example, would a mom
who is a quart a day drinker of vodka while breast feeding cause any harm to
her child at all? (I'm assuming she stopped during pregnancy and started up
again after the baby was born for argument's sake.)
