Hi Diana,
I am working with a mother who just delivered and had breast reduction  
surgery 10 years ago.  She had her nipples removed during the  procedure.  She has 
good sensitivity in both nipples and can easily express  colostrum at this 
time.
She was delivered by c/s today and the baby was great self attaching.   She 
stated that as the nursing continued she felt a burning sensation but said  it 
was tolerable and the latch looked very good.  After the feeding when  the 
baby came off the breast, the whole nipple was white.  After a minute  the nipple 
came back to its normal color.
The Mom denies any problems with cold sensitivity or history of  Raynard's.
Do you know if women who had the nipples cut are prone to Raynard's?
Thanks,
Ann
