Hyaluronic acid is usually injected into an arthritic joint and that is how
Hale's book addresses it.  It is L3.   When the baby would actually be
ingesting the cream on the nipple, I think that would be very different
than transferring into mom's milk.  If she decides to use this product, I
think, to be safe, she should wipe it off before nursing.
