Did breastfeeding ruin your b*****s (the way they look)? ..?

Question

Did you guys notice if when you breastfed that it ruined the way your b*****s look? My sister had nice b*****s before she nursed and now they look like deflated balloons. Did anyone have this happen? And also did the amount of time you breastfed make a difference? Like if you only do it for the first 3 months do your b*****s have a better chance of looking normal then if you do it for a year? Also does pumping make a difference instead of the baby actually nursing on your breast?

Answer 1

Breastfeeding does not do that to your b*****s.

Even if you don't nurse, your b*****s will still fill up with milk, then empty.  That's what changes their appearance.

Answer 2

Think about this for a moment.  Pregnancy tends to wreck your body, too, but we still go and have children.  Breastfeeding also has a tendency to leave us with "deflated" chests, but we still choose to breastfeed.  You may end up with changed b*****s after pregnancy no matter what you do, too.

Think about what is best for your child.  I know, no one likes to see their body get older and less attractive, but there's a huge difference between "letting yourself go" and gaining 20 pounds from eating cookies and ice cream and watching your body change because of motherhood.

Don't be afraid to breastfeed just because of what it may do to your b*****s.  You will be beautiful no matter what, because you are a MOM.

Answer 3

Breastfeeding doesn't ruin your b*****s.  It's pregnancy that makes our b*****s grow and swell.  After pregnancy, the b*****s returnto their normal size, and sometimes will sag a bit.  

Breastfeeding DOES greatly reduce your odds of getting breast cancer -- and having a mastectomy really spoils the look of your b*****s...

Answer 4

I breast fed for 3 months and they never changed in anyway through or after the pregnancy, I did both breast feed and pump as there was some milk problems - they have went south now but my daughter is 29 years old now.

Answer 5

It happened to me, but I never breastfed. Pregnancy ruins your b***s, not breastfeeding. Some women are lucky and theirs do not change, but it doesn't matter if you breastfeed or not.

Answer 6

its tru breastfeeding isnt the issue its the pregnancy cuz no matter what your b*****s are filled with what it takes to nourish your baby so even if you dont breastfeed there is still something in your b*****s i breastfed for 3 months and my b***s were nice and juicy looking and now they are flat and "deflated" lol but another thing is after you breastfeed they usually go that way while your milk dries up and will eventually become fuller my mom breastfed for 2 years and her b***s went kaplunk and now they are looking normal again and my brother is 3 and a half now... i guess it all depends on the individual
