I have lipomas on both my underarms which caused so much pain while breastfeeding my first child because my underarm got so big as I produced breastmilk. I could hardly sleep/rest from the pain so the doctor adviced me to transition to formula/stop breastfeeding so I am in better shape taking care of the baby. Im pregnant with my second child now and wants to breastfeed so I wonder if I can have my lipomas removed before the baby comes out so breastfeeding wont be painful this time around?
I have at least 30-60 lipomas in my small bowel and colon. My husband and I would like to try to have a baby and my doctor has said that medically she can't tell me that I cannot because of lipomas. She has said that it is extremely risky but possible if monitored well. However, I read that some women develop lipomas during pregnancy or the current ones grow. Is there a connection between the two things? If there is a link, it would make things more complicated for me. Thank you for your help!
