Exploring the many aspects of breastfeeding for a mother who has had breast reduction surgery, this book combines up-to-date research with experience and advice from breastfeeding mothers. This first of its kind publication is ideal for health care providers and mothers alike adressing the questions and myths that are associated with if and how a mother can breastfeed after breast reduction surgery. In the past, this may have been more true but with advances in surgical techniques for reduction mammoplasty (breast reduction), surgeons are increasingly able to preserve milk-producing tissue so that women who have had breast reduction are able to breastfeed. Even so, however, many surgeons and health care professionals are still unaware of the effects these types of surgeries have on breastfeeding and are therefore unable to give the detailed answere and support these women need whey they are ready to breastfeed their children. Unfortunately, in a day and age when the phenomenal and unmatchable benefits of breastfeeding are returning to the forefront of common knowledge and medical wisdom, many of these women feel forced to abandon breastfeeding in favor of exclusive formula feeding simply because no one around them knew enough about their specific issues to be able to educate them or fully support their efforts. The truth is most of these women are capable of breastfeeding and they should have the information they need in order to empower them to give their very best of their babies.
