I'd also like to say thanks for this thread. I wasn't aware of a lot of the info and believed many of the myths. I've been craving a glass of red and beer so it's nice to know I can actually have a drink or two on occasion :)

Al-cohol? What's that? :p
Goodness, it's been so long since my last drink but I can still remember it all :lol: Twas June 12th last year, I'd just started AF and was feeling incredibly sorry for myself. I went on chat and got a little tipsy :rofl:
Completely off topic I know, but there we go. Now I know that when I go out at the end of October without Amelia I'm allowed a drink or two at the beginning of my night.
Rumpled elf, that is indeed the risk of drinking with a new baby. And that risk applies equally whether you are formula feeding or breastfeeding, but some-how if always comes out as breastfeeding mums can't drink. As we have learned this is not the case. Great information!
I normally go with the policy of "if you are too drunk to drive, then you are too drunk to be in charge of a baby":
thanks for all your replies and insight.
It is nice to know that we can enjoy a bevvie or two and have some much deserved relaxation between feeds :)
