Less than 1% of the administered maternal dose of contrast medium is excreted into breast milk. Less than 1% of the contrast medium in breast milk ingested by an infant is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, the expected dose of contrast medium absorbed by an infant from ingested breast milk is extremely low. You should not worry much especially if your baby is healthy.
