A. Yes, topically applied steroids are perfectly safe to use when you are breastfeeding. There are two reasons the steroids in the cream can't hurt your baby: First, when steroids are applied to your skin, the amount of steroid that reaches your bloodstream is small. Second, what little bit of steroid might make it to the breast milk and be swallowed by your baby is then poorly absorbed out of your baby's stomach.
