A member asked:
Is it possible to breastfeed an infant after a partial hysterectomy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: The hysterectomy should have no direct impact on your ability to breast feed. You may need some help getting started if you took a few days off, but a breast feeding coach can help.
