Not recommended during lactation. It may cause excessive sedation, fluid retention, and hormone imbalances in breastfed infants.
Next Steps
With a 1 glass of wine or beer,  it is better to wait 2 to 2.5 hours per drink before nursing. but I dnt recommend even 1 glass.
Health Tips
Alcohol can decrease milk production by disrupting nursing.
