Will I be able to breastfeed with the anchor incision?

Asked By:KaylaG1993

I am scheduled for my breast reduction surgery in less than a month. I am currently a 40DDD and I'm looking to go down to a large C. I am 18 years old and around 240lbs. My breasts are sitting on my stomach and they are heavily sagging. My plastic surgeon wants to do the surgery using the anchor incision, but will I be able to breastfeed in the future? He said that I would have trouble breastfeeding now anyway since my breasts are so big. Will this surgery affect that for me?
