Breastfeeding after a Breast Reduction

4 replies

Hello...
I couldn't see another thread like this and wasn't sure if anyone out there might be in the same boat!

In 2008 I had a breast reduction because I was large for my frame (34G and only size 10) at the time that was more important than being able to breastfeed. I was made aware of the risks that I may not be able to, well 99% chance I wouldn't be able to, and whilst I still don't regret my decision to have the operation, I am keen to hear from anyone else that may have had a reduction and whether they were able to breastfeed after?
Thanks in advance!

I haven't got experience sorry, but if you look in the MN archive, there's a few old threads on breast reduction. Good luck OP Smile
