When tanning while breast feeding does it affect the baby at all?

Answer by  Milette4 (900)

Natural tanning while breastfeeding will not affect the baby at all. Just make sure that you do not use tanning lotions as most of them have chemicals in that could be harmful to your baby. Keep your tanning sessions to half an hour at a time as the sun may cause your breasts to become very sensitive. Avoid tanning beds.

No, it is completely safe. Be sure to protect your nipples. Some tanning salons offer carotene, which should be avoided for the baby's sake.
