Hello all- I am F.R.E.A.K.I.N.G out right now b/c I just had 3 amalgam fillings removed (1 larger, 2 really small) and I am nursing.  I didn't nurse my baby that night after the removal until the next day around 4am.  But, now I am really wondering why I didn't just wait until I'm done BFing!!  I gave in to conventional thinking and all the people around me saying "it's done all the time, don't worry".  Well, I am worried.  My little one is just over 12 mos old and I am nursing him about 4-5 times a day.  Since the removal, I've nursed him 4 times over the past 2 days.  Anyone here who's had amalgams removed while BFing and has children that are FINE??  Any real stories?  Should I stop BFing now??   Thank you!!!
