can I ask how your boobs went after BB?Grin do they go back to Pre preg size? Stay big if you don't bb? Always just end up sagging? Dsis always refers to hers as 2 golf balls in socks Grin after two kids . Says the doc said they go back pre preg after 5 years or so?? I'm Defo going to BB if all goes well with baby / latch etc.. I'm just Curious . In no way saggy boobs will put me off bb. I'm a ftm.

I was a 30D pre pregnancy, I went up to a 32E when breastfeeding. Stopped breastfeeding last month and my boobs are pretty much my pre pregnancy size which is miniscule. Apparently it can take up to a year for them to feel the same as before, mine are definitely a little more drooped...

I was a 38C before pregnancy.

Was fitted with a 34G just after my twins were born.

I ebf the children for well over a year.

Now a 32 DD. Not saggy at all.

I think the lack of sag might be genetic though - my Mum
and sisters all ebf two children and haven't sagged.

I BF for 12 months. Mine went back to how they were pre pregnancy even before I stopped BF. However my ribs didn't go back so I ended up a size bigger in the back. I'm now pregnant with dc2 and they r massive again already at 20 weeks! (One size up in the back and several cup sizes!)

Not having any more after this so I'm interested to see what size they end up.

I had terrible rib pain in first pregnancy which I haven't had so far this time so I guess they are not needing to move as much!

I breast fed for 2.5y. 2 years on from finishing I am down a cup size, and a little less firm, bit nothing radical. I've lost weight overall so think most of the change relates to this.

Aw thanks ladies . I'm a small 34c and never been full and Defo overspilling now. I'm secretly hoping my boobs stay a bit bigger as I kinda like being this wee bit bigger. I'm currently 16 weeks pregnant .. And just getting away with the same bra.
I've had a lot of rib pain the last few days.. Never thought about ribs stretching . That's what the pain will be!

Mine shrunk and went very saggy (surprisingly as they were only a 34b to start with). The firmed up a bit but stayed small (34a). I'm pregnant again now and I'm a 36c and they look lovely for now...ask me again in a few months.
