Ok, this is a bit silly but I was wondering how much more than usual a pair of ebf breasts weigh. Anyone know? I weigh about a stone and a half more than I feel is my fighting weight (as such) and am curious how much is just extra boobage...?
I weighed myself when my milk came in and they were obscene and I was 10kg more than my booking appt. then when they had settled down the following week I weighed myself again, 6kg less can't wait to see what this week brings! Not that I'm going to get anywhere near scales without my fussy 3kg attachment this week!
I have no idea but it must be a significant amount - my sister keeps telling me I'm becoming hunchbacked since giving birth and I keep telling her it's the weight of my boobs pulling me down!
With apparent lack of scientific study on this then, I shall assume my full extra stone and a half is boob and continue eating cake and chocolate with no guilt.
I dont know how much they weighed but mine were massive when my milk came in. I went up 2 bra sizes. I could eat whatever I wanted when I was EBF and not gain weight but sadly it caught up with me when I returned to work.
If you want to know, you'll need to dip them in a bowl of water and see how much is displaced (the Archimedean principle) then use typical adipose density to find weight, and round up a bit to allow for the times when you are milkier.
(IIRC! You have to be about H cup before it's enough in itself to skew BMI range, though)
