breastfeeding & medical procedures

Do any mommies have experience with having a medical procedure done while you are breastfeeding? I'm having an outpatient procedure on my kidney tomorrow and of course they are saying I'll need to "pump and dump" for 24 hrs. I'm not worried about that as I have enough saved for him but I'm worried about it affecting my supply when I'm able to feed him again. Any advice is greatly appreciated! (Or stories that you can share from what you did in your experience) Thanks in advance!

I don't know much about procedures and anesthesia when nursing. But if you do need to pump and dump, just be sure to pump every 2-3 hours and your supply should be fine.

Kellymom.com states that if you are being put under anesthesia then you are fine to nurse when you are awake and safely able to do so.

If you could have any procedures done, what would they be?

After I have baby#3 and am done breastfeeding I plan on having a breast lift and tummy

I’m scheduled for a c section Thursday and I’m a bit nervous.

Have any of you had a c section? If so what was your experience?
