Having a Baby After a Breast Reduction

I had my son January 10, 2014, which is one day before my one year breast reduction anniversary. Three days after I had my son, my breast became hard and swollen. They were engorged with milk.


I was so excited to know that I was able to produce milk. I really wanted to breast feed my son. The doctor said there would be a 50/50 change of me being able to breast feed.


My son would not latch on to my breast. We found out he had a tongue tie when he was 5 days old. We were able to get it clipped when he was 7 days old. I then attempted to breast feed but he still cried and had trouble latching so I decided to pump the breast milk for him. It was easier for the both of us. Almost three months later and I'm not longer pumping but still producing milk like a cow!!


My breast did not increase in size. They are still the same size. When I was pregnant my stomach kept growing, as well as other parts of my body, all except my breast. lol.
