Piercings while breastfeeding?

I’ve seen mixed opinions on this for the past year or so but most seem to be from non parents, so would love love to see yall weigh in! I’m desperate to get my vertical labret re-pierced (bar in bottom lip) or a new ear piercing. I know tattoos are a big no no due to the blood and ink and higher infection risk so I won’t be getting one of those until my breastmilk journey is over (although it’s killing me it’s been over a year since my last one now 😭) But piercings are obviously much smaller scale. What are your thoughts on this? Yay or Nay?

Do it 100 % The only risk is if you get an infection which is unlikely and could happen anyway from any cut/scrape it

I don't mind I guess ear is easier because babies gonna pull anything they can reach haha

A reputable piercer should have you fill out a form that includes whether your nursing, and I believe it can be at their discretion
