Catherine said, "Breast reduction - free nipple graft
(over 20 years before having the
baby) - only saw one of these, mom worked very, very
hard and is making
all but 4-8 oz of the baby's needs per day"

How is this possible?  My understanding is that the
nipple is picked up and moved to a new location
without necessarily being near the ducts.   I thought
this was the surgery that led to "the milk won't come
out", (in the words of a mom who had a reduction
decided that it was hopeless by a week postpartum) as
in, milk was produced but there was no way that any
milk made it's way to the nipple.

frankly, I was surprised any surgeon would still
perform that particular surgery.
