Piercing while breastfeeding?

Question

Is it safe to get my septum pierced? My baby girl is 5 weeks old & I’m breastfeeding

Answer

I’d wait until you’re done nursing. It can take things like that a lot longer to heal when you’re breastfeeding. I’m not sure about piercings, but my husband is a tattoo artist and he absolutely will not tattoo a person who is nursing. I’m not sure what policies shops that do piercings have, but I’m guessing they would probably encourage you to wait.
