Q. I would not think it does but I wondered if anyone has done any research on it. My husband and I are designating our children with animals so our first son will be given a bear. I am getting bear paw prints on my back but want to know if I need to wait till I am completely done nursing. I hope not bc obviously he is something that we are both proud of and want to show it together. My husband is getting a bear on his shoulder.

There is no evidence that getting a tattoo will affect breastfeeding. There should be no harm to mom or baby from the dyes injected. If you get a tattoo, the biggest concern for anyone (not just nursing moms) is infection (hepatitis or HIV)-- so make sure the place you go has good references and is clean.

Is it safe to get a tattoo while breastfeeding?
Tattoos are created by injecting ink into the dermal (second and third) layer of the skin. Tattooists use a hand-held electric machine that is fitted with solid needles coated in the ink. The needles enter the skin hundreds of times a minute to a depth of up to a few millimeters. The ink that is used in tattoos in the United States is subject to FDA regulation as cosmetics, but none are approved for injection under the skin. However, the ink molecules are too large to pass into breastmilk.
General information about tattooing also applies to breastfeeding women. Local and systemic infections are the most prevalent risks of tattooing. Local infections can occur when the recommended aftercare regimen is not followed. Aftercare includes keeping the tattoo clean with mild soap and water, not picking at the scabs and keeping the tattoo out of the sun. Tylenol is often prescribed for the pain, if needed. Systemic infections occur when universal precautions are not followed by the tattoo artist and can include such diseases as hepatitis, tetanus and HIV.
It is very important to screen the tattooist and the shop carefully, checking with the local health department for local laws and regulations. Professional tattooists will follow universal precautions such as sterilization of the tattoo machine using an autoclave, single-use inks, ink cups, gloves and needles, bagging of equipment to avoid cross contamination, and thorough hand washing with disinfectant soap. Most tattooists will not knowingly tattoo a pregnant or breastfeeding mother. It is suggested that mothers wait at least until the child's first birthday to give their bodies a chance to recover completely from childbirth before getting a tattoo.
Is it safe to have a tattoo removed while breastfeeding?
Tattoo removal is now accomplished with the use of lasers. The laser energy causes the tattoo pigment to fragment into smaller particles which are picked up by the body's immune system and filtered out. The removal process is bloodless, low risk and has minimal side effects. The same aftercare as for a tattoo applies to its removal.
There is no evidence suggesting that tattoos affect the breastfeeding relationship or have any effect on breastmilk. If you have chosen to adorn your body with a tattoo and give your baby the baby the best start in life by breastfeeding you can feel comfortable in your decision.
Are Tattoos Compatible with Breastfeeding?

How can I help my 13 year old daughter remove her NIPPLE piercing?
Q. How can I remove a nipple piercing from my 13 year old daughter?
She got her nipple pierced, lord knows where, and I need to remove it. I really don't care where she got it, I just need to get it out of her. I've tried and when I failed I made her father try to remove it and her brother and even her uncle and a male friend of mine. How can I remove the nipple piercing safely?

A. Take her to a doctor to remove it.
He should take a v shaped "clamp", spread the ring to get the ball out and then it should come right out.
Otherwise, sterilized needle nose pliers will do the trick. Those tension rings can be a ***** to remove.
On a side note: You need to talk to your daughter. What is a thirteen year old doing with what is considered a sexual piercing? Who did this? Did she get it at a piercing party?
You need to open the lines of communication with your child and know where she is and what she is doing, before she comes home with a FTW tattoo on her hand or something.
Edited to add: Those telling this woman to take her daughter to a piercing shop - that's a no go. One of the reasons it is illegal to piece in this area under the age of 18 ANYWHERE is because this is considered a sexual piercing. A piercer and a shop can be sued if they touch her daughter's breast or even see it for child sexual abuse (seriously). No place that does piercings will touch her because they are all aware of this, and the horror stories where people can be sued for this very thing. She needs to take her daughter to the family doctor.
