Guest guest Posted October 15, 2002 Report Share Posted October 15, 2002 Hi All, I have some questions about breastfeeding. Can We? I had an open rny done 4/19/01 and lost 125lbs. Is there any concern about nutrition loss with breastfeeding a baby? Does a baby still gain and grow enough? I really think I would like to this time, since I will be home with this baby, but really unsure about how healthy my breast milk is compared to pre op. I didn't breastfeed with my 1st child, so I have nothing to compare it to. Thanks for any and all info edd 3/14/03 scheduled c section 3/7/03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
