8. Breastfeeding

Nothing stops you from breastfeeding as a woman, not even two rings hanging in the way of your infant’s mouth. Okay, I am joking. You will need to change your rings to smaller ones, so your baby does not choke. Otherwise, lactation and breastfeeding will not be hindered by your nipple piercings at all. Very few women experience complications, but it is nothing that cannot be fixed.

However, should you remove your jewelry for the full duration of your breastfeeding period, you might need to go through repiercing once your child has been weaned. That said, taking out the nipple piercing and replacing it once the baby has had his/her fill is perfectly fine, but the soreness from breastfeeding might cause trouble when trying to reinsert the piercing.
