Does not intending to avoid a "near occasion" of sin invalidate a confession?

But being tipsy around baby is not safe. Don’t co sleep if you are not totally coherent. Alcohol could cause you to sleep deeper and be less aware of baby.

This is a good point. He does sleep in a bed right next to ours. Our mattress is very soft, so I feel uncomfortable with baby in bed until he gets a little older.

Also I want to be clear that drinking and breastfeeding is certainly not ideal, but that LLL does tell even alcoholic women to breastfeed rather than use formula. I’m sure if you do it all the time, or get very, very drunk, there may be some effects on the baby. But that’s not what I’m talking about here. Again, pumping is best, but having a few drinks and then breastfeeding very occasionally is probably not going to harm a baby in any way.
