Yes, but only if you're a heavy drinker. A few drinks (FEW and far-between) shouldn't hurt.
If you suspect you're pregnant, then you should stop drinking and take a pregnancy test. Then consult with your doctor.
Yes, when done in moderation and timed appropriately, it can be done safely.

its fine don't overdo it or your baby will get sleepy and could be hard on the liver, but the amount you would have to drink to do that, you should have a babysitter anyway. a study showed that babies dont like milk as much from mothers who drank more than 3 drinks a day. good diet is important for you with a baby. you need energy for her to play and give her the most. your body will feed her first and maybe even burn some of the fat your body stored during pregnancy. but if you really want to go nuts (hopefully safe) pump and feed that to your baby. beer also has a lot of b vitamins and calories.... good for you. make sure to drink plenty of water though.
There is much debate about this topic. Studies show that consuming alcohol while pregnant can lead to birthing complications or fetal complications. Alcohol is a depressant, it can effect hormonal regulation and the developing brain of the fetus, and most often results in premature births. There are some people who would argue that drinking it in moderation cant do any harm. BUT, there is always a risk. My personal recommendation is to not consume any alcoholic beverage while pregnant as it can cause serious complications later on.
Only if you want your baby to drink the alcohol, too. EVERYTHING you eat, drink, smoke, and inject goes to the baby through your breast milk. If you do eat, drink, smoke, and inject anything that does harm to your baby, you could be arrested, charged, go to jail, and lose your baby due to child abuse. ---- It is safe to drink alcohol while breast feeding, but only in moderation. One glass of wine, or one beer, a few times per week, can actually bennifit your health, as well as your childs. All in all its really a moral decision.
Anything ... repeat anything, that the pregnant mother eats, drinks or smokes, is also passed on to the unborn child. This is why it is always best, during pregnancy, that the mother (if a smoker) stops smoking, and/or consuming Alcoholic Beverages until after the baby is born. You'll live without those things and your newborn will be a much healthier infant for it.
If you mean alcohol absolutely! Whatever you drink so will the baby because it passes through the blood stream!
Well think about it, other things the mother eats affects the baby so probably alcohol does too.
Yes. Though a glass of wine is unlikely to cause any concern.
Yes you can switch to formula. However, its better to breast feed the baby because breast milk can help in the development in the baby's immune system. Plus the best thing about breast feeding your baby is that it really helps the mother lose a lot of weight after the baby is born. But if you are breast feeding make sure to keep an eye on your baby to decrease a chance of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome), the mother's breast may "smother" her baby by accident. while the baby is being fed, if the baby is held too tight to the breast of the mother, she may be covering its nose and the baby may not be able to breath and suffocate.
No, what you drink goes to the baby too.
A woman may go on a specific breast feeding diet so she knows the baby she is feeding is eating healthy. For example, one who is breast feeding would not want to drink alcohol because it would be passed onto her baby.
Your breast, by breast feeding! Der
While breast feeding, it is certainly possible for a mother to get an infection in her breast. The breast is usually hot and painful to the touch. It is not dangerous to nurse your baby with an infection, and it is actually recommended that you nurse more frequently. http://www.breastfeedingbasics.com/html/breast_infections.shtml
If you have breast cancer and receiving chemotherapy then you cannot breastfeed your baby.
Benzaclin may be harmful to an unborn baby. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant during treatment. It is not known whether benzoyl peroxide or clindamycin passes into breast milk or if it could harm a nursing baby. Do not use this medication without telling your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby. It is advised that you do not use Benzaclin while breast feeding or while pregnant.
the advantages of breast feeding are that if you brest feed your baby it is most likely your baby will be stronger than if you use normal milk.
Breast feeding is how all mammals feed their young, It was created when the first baby was born.
No. Better take soda after feeding your baby, to avoid spillage.
Breastfeeding is recommended for the first six months before switching to baby formula. There are more nutrients and health benefits to the baby when using breast milk.
If the baby cries whilst feeding it could be the fact the baby's airway is being blocked by your breast. Press on your breast a little to make sure the baby's nose is not being covered by your breast. If you are uptight the baby can sense this too. So make yourself comfortable prior to feeding, and relax at all costs.
