Breast Tattoo Design, Nipple Piercings and Breastfeeding


You might want to consider changing your piercing to something that is easy to remove before feeding and put back in after feeding, for example circular barbells, PFTE barbells, or straight barbells. Use a lanolin based nipple ointment to make it easier to insert, or express some milk onto the end of the bar. This helps to keep the piercing healthy.

Another option is to remove your piercing until you are done breastfeeding. Sometimes the hole might close. You might have to stretch your piercing to fit the jewellery or have the piercing done again. How long you have had your piercing, your skin type and what gauge it started at would affect your decision.

Another concern for breastfeeding mothers is whether the holes in the nipple will affect feeding. The nipple is made up of fatty tissue that is similar to a sponge. As a result, the milk comes out in various places and may include the piercing holes. This does not negatively affect nursing. If milk flow is increased because of the holes, it's usually not enough to choke your baby. It may even be helpful for babies that have a soft suckling motion.

You risk contracting a blood borne disease or infection in body decoration procedure that involves breaking the skin if the needles used are not properly sterilised or are contaminated in some way. Should the underlying tissue become infected, there is a slight risk that it could alter your milk in clarity and amount.

While pre-existing tattoos and piercings do not generally present problems during breastfeeding or pregnancy, it is advisable not to get new ones until after the baby is born and weaned from the breast. For more specific information, be sure to talk to your health care provider to make the most informed choice for you.
