I have  seen several moms with next to no sensation in their nipples after
breast  reduction. Usually those nipples do not become erect
either....because the  nerves are severed.  So they can be very hard to
latch onto.   Sometimes the surgeon puts in a pretty purse-string stitch to
make them  ALWAYS erect (artificially) and there is a lot of scarring making
the  nipple tissue very stiff and inelastic, which makes latch  difficult.
~~~ Fascinating, thanks for this info. 
 
Peace,
