Thoughtful Motherhood
May. 11, 2008 - Breastfeeding After Breast Reduction

I had a breast reduction when I was 18. The reduction has effected how much milk I make. I've tried with babies #2 & #3 to nurse. I didn't try very hard, though. Honestly, I didn't have enough information, and I was very much into 'scheduling' my baby which kinda made the nursing thing more difficult. Now, I'm on a quest to figure out how to successfully nurse this next baby.

Here's a website about breastfeeding after surgery that I'll be exploring in preparation for September. Out of all these pregnancies, this is the first time I've come across it. How exciting!

I wonder if the Lelache league lady, Dee Kassing, in Collinsville, IL can help you. She has over thirty years of experience. My sister would call her from England saying she knows a lot more than the doctors. She correctly diagnosed two of my babes with one being a flat palate and the other a tied tongue. I have helped a lot by her. She should be an easy google.

About Me

I'm an almost ordinary mom. I'm a bit quirky in my tendency toward conspiracy theory and activism. I shout at the tv, which drives my hubby crazy. I was once a single mom of one son and God redeemed me with an amazing husband who loved us both. Later, God took my barren womb and knit together three little men in two and half years, and then shocked the stuff out of us knitting together a little lady. This blog is totally random, following the trends that only occur in my mind. My biggest aim is to live my life more joyfully and more thoughtfully.
