I never let my dentist breastfeed. I do have my limits. Now-- my doctor, that's another story. :eyepop

From what I know, blood donating is a no-no.

Dental procedures- it really comes down to the medication. Some people have started looking into the mercury that is in silver fillings since mercury in vax's is a big issue now. Having them put in or take out can throw a lot of mercury into your body. I haven't read much about it, but it might be worth googling if you have silver fillings or are planning on getting any.

Blood donation is fine, but you may find that your supply is a bit low for a couple days until your blood is built back up. Make sure you're getting lots to eat and drink during that time.

As far as dental procedures - you should not have mercury amalgams removed, because it will cause a lot of mercury to go into your system/milk. All other procedures are fine, as are just about any med or anesthesia they might give you.

Sounds good, I go for a cleaning next month, so I will double check what my dentist thinks.

What about Plasma donations? Same thing or a No-No?
