breastfeeding & tattoos

I want a tattoo AFTER my baby is born with his name. But I also want to breastfeed. I read that I can get a tattoo right after giving birth because the ink doesn't get into my blood. Seems weird because the needle breaks skin & my last tattoos bled. My question is do you guys know for sure?

No tattoos until your done breast feeding. It could cause infections in your blood and could get to the baby just as easy as it would while pregnant! I have over 30 tattoos an my husband was a tattoo artist for years until our son was born
