Either you cannot use lidocaine topical at all, or may be given an adjusted dose or may need individual supervision throughout the healing.

Lidocaine topical falls in the FDA pregnancy category B. This indicates the drug is usually not injurious to the foetus. If you are already pregnant before the treatment or can conceive once the treatment begins, positively talk to the doctor about your plans and pregnancy status. Unfortunately, lidocaine topical travels into breast milk and can harm a suckling infant. So if you are a lactating mother, never use lidocaine topical without consulting your medical personnel.
