Often/not always : Some women with breast implants do breastfeed successfully. The issue is that when the surgeon does the implant, he/she cuts into the breast tissue, which cuts through some of the milk producing and milk ejecting areas. Depending on how the surgery was done, and how much nipple disruption there was, a mom may or may not be successful. It certainly doesn't hurt to try, but tell your doctor.
