Milkscreen Alcohol Test Strips for Breastfeeding Moms, 20 Strips

Breastfeeding moms can now have peace of mind knowing that their breast milk is ready for their baby in just 2 minutes. UpSpring MilkScreen’s breast milk test strips for alcohol have been trusted by moms for over 10 years. These test strips are able to detect alcohol in breast milk, even at low levels, giving moms reassurance about the safety of their breast milk.

The process is easy, fast, and accurate. Simply saturate the MilkScreen alcohol test strips with breast milk and wait for 2 minutes. If the test pad changes color, it indicates the presence of alcohol, at or above 13.1 mg/dL. No more guessing. These test strips are FSA/HSA approved and come in a pack of 20 individually wrapped disposable test strips, along with an instruction guide.

While the general recommendation by organizations such as the AAP and WHO is to avoid alcohol while breastfeeding, it is considered acceptable to have a small or standard drink. However, breastfeeding should be avoided for at least 2 hours after consumption. This is because alcohol is metabolized and eliminated from the blood and breast over time. Rather than pumping and dumping the milk, it is recommended to wait before the next feeding if possible. It's important to note that every woman metabolizes alcohol at a different rate, depending on factors such as body weight, the type and amount of alcohol consumed, and the timing of the last meal.

UpSpring MilkScreen test strips provide reassurance that your breast milk is ready for your baby, allowing you to have more fun and less worry. UpSpring is dedicated to supporting your breastfeeding journey and wants to ensure you don't have to stop due to a celebratory occasion. All their wellness solutions, including MilkScreen, are proudly made in the USA and designed to nurture the nurturers.

In just two minutes, MilkScreen can accurately analyze breast milk for alcohol. Every mother is unique, and so is the way our bodies metabolize alcohol. Factors such as body weight, type of alcohol consumed, and food intake can affect alcohol metabolism, which is why MilkScreen was created to eliminate these variables. By using MilkScreen, moms can ensure that the level of alcohol in their breast milk is not at a level that may negatively impact their baby. Studies have shown that infants consuming breast milk with alcohol concentrations at approximately 30mg/dl, or 0.03%, and higher exhibit changes in feeding behavior and sleep. Babies consume less milk when it contains alcohol and also experience disrupted sleep patterns. To stay within recommended feeding guidelines, MilkScreen test strips are set to show a color change at 0.02%.

Know that your breast milk is ready with UpSpring MilkScreen. Trusted by moms for over a decade, these test strips provide fast and accurate results, giving you peace of mind. Don't settle for substitutes, choose a product that is made with love and backed by science. Please note that MilkScreen is not intended for the prevention, diagnosis, or treatment of alcohol intoxication or poisoning or other health-related conditions in women or nursing babies.

MilkScreen also makes a popular baby shower gift for new moms. The small and individually packaged test strips are convenient to use wherever you need them. Give the gift of reassurance and ease to new breastfeeding moms.
