breastfeeding

Any mom's out there that have had a breast reduction and then successfully breast fed their child? I had a breast reduction almost 3 years ago, but the nerves in my right nipple are gone and I cannot feel that nipple at all. It still gets hard so I know it's not dead, but I are worried that I'm not going to be able to breast feed my daughter.

I haven't had any breast surgeries but I would think that the only issue that may occur is difficulty latching on the side that's numb but I'm sure that you'll adapt if that's even a problem.
