Piercings

Ive been wanting to get my nose pierced before my pregnancy. My parents think its just best for me to wait until the baby is born. Would it be a good idea to get it pierced while breastfeeding?

I would suggest not because of possible infections, but as long as you make sure to clean it really well, I dont see a problem. But always consult your doctor! :)

I got my lip pierced a second time when I was pregnant. They're only worried about infection so just keep it clean and you'll be good.

Many places will not do it if you are pregnant but the only real worry is cleanliness where ever you decide to go. I would wait personally
