Hi,
There is no danger to your baby from breastfeeding after being stung by a scorpion. The venom only damages your skin and soft tissue at the site of the sting but does not circulate in your body or enter breastmilk.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Emmette Clark, Pediatrician
