have just got lost there for ages, looking t all the referenced articles and stuff
Really well done hunker, it's a fab site and really interesting

Thank you, Piffle - I figure that if I put stuff on there that's interesting to me, some others are bound to be interested

Keep having ideas for it and being nowhere near a PC...!

I was very annoyed when I was disturbed from my breastfeeding research by having to actually go and breastfeed ds2...

They get in the way so, don't they, children?!

I was reading Best Feeding the other day and DS2 (22mo) came up to me, shook his head, shut the book, said, "Bye bye" to it and clambered onto my lap with a Wibbly Pig book...!

Yes atm mo he is getting in the way of my long planned breast reduction
But in the best possible way...
I am hoping his hungry little chops will reduce them naturally over the coming months/years...

Hunker that's cute

Yes, at least you know that bfing doesn't make them saggy - I too hanker for the days of DD, not G/H but I figure hey ho, at least I can use scaffolding.

I hated them even as a DD tbh.. now a DD would be manna from heaven as I sling these HH (and their overspill) babuskas around the days...

I am thinking I might try and shed half a stone (in my own time cheers very much) and see if that alters them at all.
I am already quite light ish though I think well healthy weight, but think losing weight is healthier than major surgery....
?

but sagyy nope, not even with age gaps of 9 and nearly 5 years

I'll try that too...one day

LOL!

Sorry, off topic but piffle I'm with you there. I thought my E cup was bad but I'm now up to a 36J. My plan is to finish feeding DD (not sure when that will be), lose a stone or so (back to normal weight), give them a year and then see where they are and what size. Then I think I'll consider surgery. I had always wanted a reduction (from an E pmsl, didn't know how great that was!) but wanted to be sure I could BF so said I'd wait.

Mind you, I believe that in the few years I've been having children, big bras have become a lot better so maybe there will be a boulder holder that does the job.

To wander off topic with you Suzi... I was a generous 32H before DS, went up to a J when my milk came in. I'm now back in my pre-pregnancy bras and they are baggy, DS appears to have shrunk them (16 months of feeding). I hated my boobs pre-baby, now I'm pretty proud of them.

And Bravissimo do such lovely pretty bras these days, tempt tempt

My mums friend was the same maewest. I didn't have a gap between feeding DS and getting pg with DD so no idea what size they would be then. As long as I don't have to roll them up to get them in a bra when there's no milk I'll be reasonably happy.

Piffle, as you know, I'm with you... was just a FF / G cup before bfing, now nearer a J - oh, okay then a K but you're then getting into hammocks rather than bras.

Even Bravissimo don't have a K cup nursing bra. Have to have the horrible Royce / NCT ones.

Mossy - I'm on that J/K line too and got away with buying an underwired nursing bra from emmajane in an H in a bigger back size. Not ideal, but it was ok for the wedding I had to go to.

See I am 32 HH, with overspill at times, rather than got to J I would rather go up to 34 and stick to H/HH

I'm not sure weight loss will fix the size, if anything 1/2 stone lighter and they will look even more ridiculous...

it's not vanity (well not purely) I get hideous back and neck problems, I have dents in my shoulders (you can see them in xray) from bra straps....

GRRR
