I nurse MY baby only on one side and pump the other side for another baby. the first few days where i was getting my supply up was like nursing a newborn, se was constantly on the beast. but now it's totally fine. ps the breast my baby liked was my underproducer! she gets that one and the pumped breast get the mass producer, lol.

Not sure about the answers to your question, but I do know that the surgeon should make incisions radially, not circumferentially (that is, like the spokes of a bicycle, rather than going around the breast) to minimize cutting anything vital. You may also be able to start bf from that side again after the milk has dried up by using a lactation aid.
