Dear Kathleen B,

An email list exists as a forum for support and exchange of
information among women who have had reduction mammoplasy
and who are contemplating or currently breastfeeding.  Topics
for discussion pertain to all aspects of breastfeeding in relation to
the
unique challenges of doing so after breast surgery.  They are a very
supportive group and have found a wonderful kinship in talking to other
women who have had such similar experiences.  They have also learned a
great
deal from each other and welcome new information and the opportunity to
provide support to others who are going through this, as well.

Unfortunately, this is not a forum for discussion of topics pertaining
to
general information about breast reductions, so only those women who
have
already had the surgery and who are pregnant and want to breastfeed or
are
currently breastfeeding will be eligible to subscribe.  The good news is

that this list is very low-volume, but every post is a gem.  As of this
date, though, it is not available in digest format.

If you are interested in subscribing, please send your request, along
with
a brief description of your history and current situation to

Hope this group can help your client,
