Retinol whilst breastfeeding?

What do you reckon? Am I being silly and should wait or ok to use it?

I was thinking of just using it once a week. Baby is 8 months old and my skin looks like crap! I’ve heard lots of great things about retinol but apparently it’s a no no whilst breastfeeding, which is odd because baby has vitamin A in his drops. Planning on breastfeeding until he’s at least 2 (brother was breastfed until 2.5).

topical retinol seems to be fine.

it's not like you put it where baby is likely yo lick it off.
