Shallow question about boob size

6 replies

StepfordWeeble · 08/02/2010 00:00

Okay, so not strictly about feeding (and I do appreciate there are vastly more serious issues to post about under this topic) but I thought some of the experts on here might be able to tell me whether my boobs will ever shrink back?

I have a 10 week old baby and my boobs seem to be getting bigger and bigger - they are now popping out of my 36G boulder holder and I feel like I will never look attractive or find anything to fit ever again. When will it end?

ummm they do get smaller again after breastfeeding but they won't be as firm\plump!

yep they certainly do! I was 36F when breasfeeding but 2 years later when baby weight (and a bit more) came off and i'd stopped feeding there now a 36b poss smaller

my normally miniscule boobs were huge for the first about 14 weeks. now, i'm still feeding at nearly 6 months but they have gone down to quite small. i think i'll be needing a trainer bra by the time i'm done !

Was 32F before getting pregnant with DS1 - boobs expanded to a 34G - then shrunk back to the 32F I was before. Same thing happened with DS2 (now mixfeeding as he is nearly 1 and back to 32E).

Definitely invest in good nursing bras while BFing - will help support your boobs as they change shape.
