註釋Exploring the many aspects of breastfeeding for a mother who has had breast reduction surgery, this book combines up-to-date research with experience and advice from breastfeeding mothers. This first of its kind publication is ideal for health care professionals and mothers alike, addressing the questions and myths that are associated with if and how a mother can breastfeed after breast reduction surgery.
In the past, this may have been more true but with advances in surgical techniques for reduction mammoplasty (breast reduction), surgeons are increasingly able to preserve milk-producing tissue so that women who have had breast reduction are able to breastfeed. Even so, however, many surgeons and health care professionals are still unawared of the effects these types of surgeries have on breastfeeding. Unfortunately, in a day and age when the phenomenal and unmatchable benefits of breastfeeding are returning to the forefront of common knowledge and medical wisdom, many of these women feel forced to abandon breastfeeding in favor of exclusive formula feeding simply because no one around them knew enough about their specific issues to be able to educte them or fully support their efforts.
The truth is most of these women are capable or breastfeeding and they should have the information they need in order to empower them to give their very best to their babies.
