While the below makes sense, I have now been at two children's 
hospitals with my son where the exact opposite is hospital policy.  
Sedation is 6 hours no breastmilk.  Endotrachial anesthesia is 4 hours 
no breastmilk.

For one emergency surgery, they did treat breastmilk as a clear fluid 
and allowed 2 hours.
