Had baby
Well for those who were curious about being able to breast feed after explant with dr Melmed since he take them out thought the nipple. I am breastfeeding successfully. I'm a little over 2 weeks pp and little guy is gaining like crazy so I'm producing plenty of milk. Also haven't had mastitis yet. I got it right at 2 weeks with my daughter.
One year check in
I'm over a year after explant and 26 weeks pregnant so they have filled out nicely. Left is a lot bigger than right but that is ok. My left produced more milk than my right when I was breastfeeding my daughter so I'm hoping this is a good sign. Will let y'all know if I'm able to breastfeed successfully this August.

I am very happy with the size and shape of my breasts however I am very upset right now with the scars on my nipples. The right side is caving in. I sent a photo to my surgeon and he said to massage every day which I have been doing and to check back with him in September. He said it will most likely flatten out but if it doesn't he will fix it.I don't know what "fix it" means but I in no way want to have another surgery ever. I am also upset that I let him convince me to let him take them out through the nipple when I still want to breast feed. He assured me all his other patients could still breast feed even though he took them out through the nipple. I am really hoping this will be the case with me but why give me even more scars? I have talk to some women that had no problem with breast feeding after having them out through the nipple but I am still very scared about it. We are going to start trying soon for the second one and I terrified I made the wrong decision in trusting another plastic surgeon. I am trying to be patient Really hope these scars flatten and fade soon I get upset every time I see them.
