I had a breast reduction surgery done a few months ago and am now pregnant with number 3, I have been told the chances of being able to beastfeed are slim and was just wondering whether anyone else has successfully fed

My friend had breast reduction surgery a few years ago and is now the momma of a 13 month old breastfed baby boy.
Your chances are NOT slim- that's a myth.
Sometimes you CAN have supply issues though
Learn all that you can before your baby is born. Have knowledgeble and pro breastfeeding support in place for after the baby is born.
A lot depends on the type of surgery that you had.
Good luck.
