ok, so i work in a hospital, and every year we have to get a PPD shot. it is the shot they put under your skin then they have to check it 2 or 3 days later to see if it is "positive" for tubuculosis (can't spell) exposure.

i was wondering if it were safe while BF? anyone know? i called my pedi and he said yes it was ok.. but that office doesn't like me and is angry with me for holding off on shots for Kaylee. i am actually going to switch pedi's soon.

i'm just wondering if they really do have her best interests in mind.
