FWIW my supply was not affected at all and I never came accross anything to suggest that in my reading?? The biggest concern to me was that in theory, the ink particles are small enough to pass into breast milk. No one knows for sure and no one knows what risk, if any, this would pose to the baby. Most stuff I read suggested it was a very small risk, particularly with a small tattoo.
There's quite a few threads on the ABA site if you're interested, and one with posts from a tattooist too if I remember correctly.
I'll check them out, thanks, Willow
Should have clarified, I'm itching for the labret more than the tat ATM. The tat can wait till I get a nice design for my 2nd idea, then I'll choose which one comes first.
The labret I'm just hanging out for!
Another reason to wait is that during pregnancy your blood volume and flow is so exaggerated. Excessive bleeding can occur during a procedure like getting a piercing. Also, any infection that may develop will enter your blood stream and directly impact bubs.
Besides, waiting makes it that much more special when you do eventually get it done
oh hun the first chance after having bub GET IT DONE ,ive had mine done for about 6yrs now and lurve it .did not hurt one bit ,infact didnt even relize it had been done ,bit hard to say some things for a couple of days but after a week you will be use to it and love it.i just have a very small one in now but would recomend .
infection in my lip or mouth was never a problem ..the only thing now after having it in for so long it hits the back of my teeth sometimes and feels a bit yuk lol..
