Dear Tina, I had a nurse that had four breast surgeries, she had breastfeed her first baby without difficulties, but inbetween 2-3 she had the lumps removed. She was told she couldn"t breastfeed. However when her breast leaked, she was told she couldn't produce enought to"not bother". With number three the pediatrician told her to talk to me, she felt she should try. We did, and she breastfeed for over a year. I do believe it has to be a wait and see, of course put the baby to breast, and see if she has milk transfer. sincerely Martha Rhea, IBCLC *********************************************** The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(TM) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
