Product Information:

Alcohol in your breast milk can have a number of negative impacts on you and your baby:

• Let-down and milk production: Studies show that alcohol can inhibit your let-down and milk production (one study showed a 23% decrease in milk volume with one drink*).
  
• Calorie consumption by the infant: Your baby may also drink less milk if your milk contains alcohol, limiting the number of the extremely valuable calories he or she may receive.
  
• Sleep: Studies also show that babies do fall asleep sooner after ingesting alcohol in breast milk, but they sleep less soundly and wake earlier.
  
• Development of motor-skills: In more extreme cases, an infant's motor skill development may be hampered.

Why Mums want it!

• Babies wake up unexpectedly when Mums have had a glass of wine and are not sure if it is safe to feed.
  
• Mum’s have a special function (i.e. wedding, anniversary) where they may have more than 1 glass and may not be sure if it is safe to feed even a few hours after their last drink.
  
• Many mums are very stressed in the early weeks of becoming a mum. Being able to relax with a glass of wine (in moderation) on occasion confident in the knowledge they are not harming their baby could assist them to feel like they are getting back to their pre-baby life (if only for a moment!).
  
• Helps mums avoid the ‘pump and dump’ scenario which is completely unnecessary. Alcohol in breast milk is like alcohol in your blood - only time can remove it. The ‘pump & dump’ method is not necessary or effective at reducing alcohol concentration.

Why not just give expressed milk anyway?

• If the test result is negative mums can avoid their infants becoming agitated while waiting for frozen expressed milk to be defrosted. A two minute test could save twenty minutes and mums sanity!
  

How Does Milkscreen® work?

In only two minutes, Milkscreen® analyzes your breast milk for the presence of alcohol and provides you with a clear positive or negative reading.

We are often asked the question..."does Milkscreen® tell me how much alcohol is in my breastmilk"... the answer is no. The reason for this is simply that there are too many conflicting studies and reports regarding what is a safe or dangerous level of alcohol in breastmilk whilst breastfeeding.

Abbreviated Milkscreen® Instructions:

Remove the individual test strip from its protective foil packaging and saturate the reactive pad with breast milk.

Wait two minutes.

Read the results – a colour change of green or blue indicates a positive result (alcohol in your breast milk).

Detailed instructions with illustrations & alternative testing methods are included in the packaging.
