This website provides information and support to mothers who wish to breastfeed after breast or nipple surgery, and their friends and family. It is also an online resource for healthcare providers who help mothers breastfeed.

Within this site, you'll find information about the effects of each type of breast and nipple surgery on breastfeeding, how the surgeries are performed, and stories from women who have breastfeed after the surgeries. Our sister site, lowmilksupply.org, is a resource for information about assessing and increasing milk production and supplementing in ways that are supportive of breastfeeding.

Information can be very empowering, but it is also very helpful to have the personal support of other women who are breastfeeding after breast and nipple surgery. Please consider joining our forums to meet new friends and learn from their experience and wisdom.

We welcome you to explore our website to discover the wonderful possibilities of breastfeeding after breast or nipple surgery.

Our new sister site, LowMilkSupply.org now has all the information about increasing milk production and supplementation formerly here on BFAR.org, so this site can focus exclusively on breastfeeding after breast and nipple surgeries. Lowmilksupply.org will have in-depth information about all known causes for low milk production, as well how to target treatments for more effective outcomes. Like BFAR.org, it will also have a warm community of support through forums, blogs, and access to experts Diana and Lisa Marasco, authors of "The Breastfeeding Mother's Guide to Making More Milk." Like BFAR.org, the site will be managed by Diana West and Carol Maranta.

They're here! Members of our forums are keeping blogs (web logs) of their experiences breastfeeding after breast or nipple surgery. Visit our BFAR Blogs now.
