A breastfeeding mother asks you if alcohol can be eliminated from her breast milk by pumping immediately after drinking a few glasses of wine. What would you tell her?

  b. Yes; pumping will help, but you need to pump for the next 24 hours and discard any milk that you collect.
  c. No; your breast milk will still contain alcohol; you will need to wait 1 hour per alcoholic beverage and then pump the milk and discard it to be safe.
  d. No; the alcohol will still be in the breast milk and will clear from the milk as soon as it clears from the blood stream: roughly 2 to 3 hours per drink for a 120-pound woman.
