Why was milkscreen created?
Milkscreen was created to help extend the life of breastfeeding. Many women wish to resume occasional alcohol consumption while breastfeeding. Maternal self-confidence is critical to long term breastfeeding so we created milkscreen to give mom peace of mind that her breast milk does not contain alcohol.
I don't feel intoxicated – why use Milkscreen?
A "feeling" of intoxication or non-intoxication is not an accurate indicator to determine if alcohol is present in breast milk. The only way to know if your breast milk contains alcohol is to test your breast milk.
Can't I just "pump and dump" to get the alcohol out of my breast milk?
Pumping breast milk (i.e. the "pump and dump" method) does not eliminate alcohol from the breast milk. The only way to clear alcohol from the bloodstream and breast milk is to wait an extended period of time.
Milkscreen is a consumer product, and not intended to be used in the prevention, diagnosis or treatment of alcohol intoxication or poisoning or other health-related conditions in women or nursing babies. See Milkscreen Information Guide for complete details.
