I had to clean up a windshield wiper fluid spill in my vehicle and it went on my hands. It is made from methyl alcohol. I could feel it disappearing off my hands as though it was soaking in or evaporating before I was able to wash it off. It took several back and forths with cleaning it and washing my hands but in total it wasn't on there long. I see online that it's poisonous when absorbed in the skin. Is there any problem with breastfeeding? I'm certainly not experiencing any side effects personally from this small exposure, but I know lots of things transfer to breast milk. Thank you for your time.
