I will be having another eye operation. Will it be safe to feed DD when I wake up?

I am pretty sure it is fine.

I needed surgery the day after I had Audrina to have a kidney stent removed. I asked both my OB and the anesthesiologist if I needed to avoid feeding, especially since my baby was only a day old and they both assured me that a VERY tiny amount gets into the breast milk, and that it was safe for her to consume.

I'd mention that you are breastfeedng to the doc that will put you under. I'm not sure if there is a different anesthetic they use or not.

yes just mention to the aneastesiologist that you are nursing.

should be fine. Let them know, i think it only matters for after care pain management.
