I Have A Suspicious Mole (not ot)

[Hopesmommy]

I will probably have it removed today. In the past, they gave me a shot of local in the area and shaved it off.

I assume that a local is compatable with breastfeeding? My baby is 11 weeks old.

I also had this done and the doctor told me it would not be an issue.

I had this done as well. I made sure to nurse as close to the procedure as possible. And then I encouraged nursing more on the other breast for a while after (though I know even a local isn't 100%, well, local). I did not notice any issues and didn't feel concerned about anything.

While healing, I kind of put my hand over the area so DD wouldn't play with the bandage.
