Do you lose sensitivity after Breast reduction?

I've laughed till I cried reading about the ordeals we've experienced with our breasts (or lack of breasts at this point!) Mine are no longer beautiful melons but could be considered fruit roll ups. I also thought the comparrison I read on here "tube socks with nipples" was very appropriate where my breasts are concerned. Anyway, I hate to be graphic but I need some info. My husband is definitely a "breast man" and I must admit that I enjoy the intimacy we share in this area. I am afraid (and he is too) that if I have my breasts lifted or reconstructed I will lose sensitivity there. Does anyone have any experience in this area? My husband is so understanding but I don't know which is worse - the thought of having no sensitivity in my breasts or the current embarrassment, during intimacy, of my husband having to search around in my armpits to find what's left of my breasts. I don't regret WLS for a second but this is one frustrating aspect!!!! What should I do? I'm down 110 pounds. 44C then - 34A now (and I only wear an A because I refuse to buy a "littlest angel" training bra!). THANKS!!
