I too would welcome more discussion about alcohol use and bf.
I have been counseling moms that an occasional small drink such as a small
glass of beer at a 'crab or crawfish boil' (very common here), a small glass
of wine when out to dinner, or a wine cooler at a party would be compatible
with no interruption in bf. I emphasize this should be occasional and not
daily or heavy use. (altho I don't see why one glass of wine per day would
be a problem - some cultures drink daily.)
Now I feel compelled to change my advice.
