Lidocaine anb BFing???

Anyone have a copy of Medications and Mothers' Milk by Hale?

I'm having a deep mole removed and will have local anesthia (Lidocaine).  Initally the dermatologist PA said it was ok.  But the sergeon told me to wait 4-6 hours before nursing.

I'm pretty sure Lidocaine is what they used to stitch me up after delivery.  And DD nursed right away.  So I think its fine.  Maybe the sergeon is being conservative>

TIA
