That would be a really selfish reason not to.

If you are able, please do it. It is best for your baby and I can promise you, you wont regret it.

You're supposed to take them out if you BF, I believe.

And it doesn't hurt me to BF, and I don't blister, and I'm never sore.

And, I know BFing isn't for everyone.. But it's better for your child, and that's kind of a selfish reason to not to do the best for your child.

If your baby is willing to latch on its WAY more important than nipple peircings so i would say if theres no medical reason why then you SHOULD breastfeed and not be selfish. IMO

Just cause it makes your breasts look ugly you dont wanna breastfeed? That's not a good idea. If you do though I would expect you take them out before each feeding.

I am on medicine, and am BFing. I've had really bad PPD, and they just put me on a lowdose. It helps. Do the best for your child..

You can take the nipple rings out while breastfeeding. It will make it better for all parties involved. I breastfeed for 6 weeks and had mine out the whole time and had no problem getting them back in when I was done! Good luck!

You can breastfeed for any amount of time. lol
6 months is the recommended minimum. 2 years is best

Should be fine, of course remove the ring before feeding.

You don't want to breastfeed because it will make you "ugly looking"?
Did I read that right?
