Is it safe to breast feed with breast implants with TIGR surgical mesh around implants?

Asked By:L2014 in Scotland, United Kingdom

I had a breast augmentation around 6 months ago with a TIGR surgical mesh . I am currently expecting my first child and I would very much like to breast feed but I am not sure if it’s safe to do so with the implant (textured silicon) AND TIGR mesh. Please advise. Thank you!
