Woman accused of breastfeeding while drunk
A Durham, Connecticut woman has been charged by police of breastfeeding her baby while intoxicated, something that we didn’t even know was illegal.
Police said Allanah Earley, 36, brought the baby to the Eagles Club on Stack Road Friday evening. They said while at the bar, Earley had seven drinks. They said she then wandered out into the cold with the baby, and eventually brought the child to a friend’s house, where she had more drinks.
“As soon as you start nursing the child, you know everything that goes in you can be affecting the child, whether it’s an aspirin or cup of coffee,” Guilford resident Susan Welsh said.
Police said Earley then breast-fed the 3-week-old infant while still intoxicated.
Wonder where the breastfeeding advocates stand on this issue.
