Laser hair removal and breastfeeding (xp from 6-9)

I'm thinking of starting it next week...  Is it bad?  Did someone do it?  The technician assured me it's safe, but I just want to be a 100% sure it is.  What do you think?

    I don't know, but I can't think of any way it should impact your milk supply or content.

    unless you are having hair removed from your breasts/ nipples I think you should be all set.

    I had been getting laser treatments on my face and bikini area prior to getting preg in Dec. 2010.  I'm still breastfeeding.  I went in to the laser place hoping to restart treatments about 3 months ago and mentioned before they started that I'm breastfeeding.  They said they will NOT treat patients while breastfeeding...something to do with it raising your core body temperature and possibly impacting supply.

    I was planning to laser my bikini and they wouldn't do it on me either.  I think its probably just precautionary but I thought I'd let you know.  Stinks!!!
