Cee, I don't think we have evidence for this.....a mother has to be
extremely inebriated for the baby to show symptoms of being drunk.
Per Hale, this would be having an alcohol/blood level three times
higher than would be illegal to drive (UK) - and that's very, very
drunk.
Please lets be careful before we say when a mother 'should' and
'shouldn't' be feeding :)
