DID YOU KNOW? Women who have had breast reduction surgery can successfully breastfeed. Most commonly, these moms wont produce all the milk their babies need, but there is no way to tell without trying. Supplementing (whether with donated milk or commercial formula) can be done directly at the breast, while simultaneously maximizing production by emptying and stimulating the breasts. Prescription medication to increase production is available and there are many herbal options also available. Breastfeeding isnt just about feeding, and these mothers and babies also gain innumerable benefits, whether mom is producing all the milk or just a fraction. That is success.
