My boobs have gone from a depressing B to a fantastic, over the moon, i now have a reason to walk tall, size F boobs lol :yelclap:

but.....

I had my joy killed today as I was told that after breast feeding / pregnancy your boobs go smaller than what they were before??:eek: WTF?

Is this true?

I haven't heard that they go smaller but that they end up saggy and down near your belly button!! I am not looking forward to that I guess I will be buying some great push up bras.. One thing I do notice on all b/f mums that I know they have this kinda gap inbetween the 2 boobs!! It is very wierd maybe thats what it looks like after they go saggy and then you wear a push up bra!!!


Oh well the sacrifices you make!!

Mine went from an A to a C when preggers, and now i'm just a B. :smiliedance::D In my case they didn't get smaller, just not quite as 'full' looking.

Oh, and i didn't breastfeed....its apparently not the actual breastfeeding that makes boobs sag, its a combionation of pregnancy and how supple your skin is etc. Some women are just prone to it, just like stretchmarks (of which i have many....:o :D )

Hi! How are you? I was a C before I breastfed. I've now stopped breastfeeding and recently got re-fitted for bras and I'm now an E! I don't like it as I can't buy bras from anywhere but Bras N Things and they only ever have a few E's in store. Bugger of buggeries.

i was a B before DS and after b/f i became a D. but that could also be the extra weight i put on. my boobies did sag after though :( which was sad because i was happy with them before. i did hear that boobs do generally go up a size after having babies. :fingerscrossed: that you get to keep yours.

If I'd known you wanted size F I could have sent you mine... cos I don't want 'em!!

F for Freaking Huge!

So I'm hoping that it is true, I'd love to go smaller. I think back to a nice C would suit me just fine.

I started off as a D, and haven't grown much since. Well, actually, at the moment I'm a DD, but that's because I've gotten fatter, and has nothing to do with pregnancy OR breastfeeding.

I've read that saggy breasts are caused by pregnancy hormones, and have nothing to do with breastfeeding.

That's really impressive. mine never got much bigger i stayed the same size while i was breastfeeding and after i stopped too. They did get saggier though.

OMG lol - if they do go back :fingerscrossed: they are not saggy - didnt even think about that:eek:

Mine got bigger, then after my DD finished feeding they got smaller than they were to begin with. I'm afraid that in my case the rumours are true!

But i will also add that i lost a bit of weight which would probabl;y explain it too :confused:

AA before pregnancy (HATED THEM)
A while pregnant
C when milk came in (and for first 3 months after birth)
NOW (14 months of breastfeeding later)
a nice full perky B :D

Helps that I exercise, if you do nothing else keep those chest muscles toned ladies, they prevent sagging!

I was a 12C before i fell pregnant and went up to a 14F when i was breastfeeding. I stopped breastfeeding a year ago and am a 12F. Myboobs are definately a bit saggier and its impossible to find bras, bathers and tops that fit.

Best and less and K-mart have a range kayser that do up to E cup (starting at size10) for about $25 so much cheeper than Bras and things.

Hi Ladies,:wave:

Well i was a 10 A- maybe a B ( with smaller bra's) and now i'm 7 months pregnant and a D cup, and i hate them.. :gloomy: My boobs filled out before i even gained a kilo and i hated them, i really hope i get my small boobs back after breastfeeding. My sister is a 10E and i have never envied her for them I'm a size 6 and i like to have it all in proportion (she has a body like Jordan's except hers are real :confused: ) so god help her when she gets pregnant. :laughing:

i'm jealous of all you girls whose boobs got bigger. i was a B pre-preg, a C cup while preg and bfing (which i loved) and now i'm a flat A! Not fair :thumbsdown:

I went from a C to and E, breastfed, have lost 15 kilos and they have remained E. Before you get too excited about it, to find a nice bra that actaully fits and supports properly may take you a solid day of shopping and at this size they are incredibly heavy. I get constant back ache and neck tension plus I can't sleep without a bra.

A bit of an update...
Although they are attracting some attention which I do feel really comfortable with yet, I am still loving them:smiliedance:

They are actually popping out of my F bra lol. I think all of my weight gain has been boobs - I am just happy it hasnt transferred anywhere else yet lol :thumbsup:

Tones, someone on here posted a link to UnderCoverWear a while back for us ladies with larger boobies
http://www.undercoverwear.com.au/catalogue/page10-11.htm

They've got E cups in there, but I swear the last catalogue I looked at had cups that were higher than that... or maybe im going crazy. :laughing:

Mine were a DD before getting pregnant, now they are about an FF.

LOL...I used to think this is what mine looked like (after babies/braestfeeding)...until DH enlightened me...he particularly drew attention to the fact that I don't run around the african jungle with no bra and only a cloth covering my butt...thank God for the Braziere:smiliedance:
