Was just wondering if getting your nipples pierced can mess with your capability of lactating

Nipple piercings won't interfere with your ability to produce milk, but the jewellery needs to be removed during nursing. Other than that, it shouldn't be a problem, although if it's a piercing you're considering, you can ask a piercer about it too.
