Sad boobs tips

Have just posted a more serious one but thought I’d ask this too as I’m up.
What are people doing to save their post breastfeeding boobs?! Mine are so tragic (think dumbos ears) and it makes it hard to feel sexy nowadays. I’m not paying for a boob lift but what else can I do? Any amazing bras or other tips to get my boobs off the floor?! 🥴😂

I wear a crop top vest at night in the hope that it keeps them perkier

Helpmewean · 13/02/2024 20:10

Hmmm I don’t know if that would save mine 😂

I've breastfed five DC. They puff up again. Giv it a year, mine are now a reasonable facsimile of their former selves.

Yeah they can reinflate! Mine felt all soft and empty after finishing BF and now several years on they're back to the same as before albeit an inch or so lower.

Pacifybull · 13/02/2024 20:16

Mine didn’t really look any different after pregnancy and breastfeeding two DC.

Give it a year or so, they'll perk up again

Following with interest. I've not breastfed for 18 months now and I'm still waiting for the reinflation 😔

FranklyFurious · 13/02/2024 20:50

Give it 1 to 2 years. Try different styles of bras.

^ honestly
Mine are a little lower but generally perky again - they unfortunately didn't keep their bf size which was the first time I've had actual boobs 😭

Mine remained deflated until perimenopause around 10 years later. It may be the HRT even.

GingerScallop · 13/02/2024 21:00

This is making me laugh so hard. Inflation, reinflation. Going an inch or so lower. Now in my mind I cant help saying Boobs migrating southwards (sunny weather!).

Take heart op. Mine I think have reinflated. But others are right. Most men do care.

Giltedge · 13/02/2024 21:02

Most men do care.

Why bring that into it? @GingerScallop

madderthanahatter · 13/02/2024 21:07

My Dumbos ears got fatter and droopier rather than reinflating. I honestly wouldn't mind a mastectomy now.

Helpmewean · 13/02/2024 22:35

My goodness thanks for the laughs ladies 😂💕 bring on the reinflation then I say!!

Mine reinforced but then I had weightloss surgery an they have shrunk again but re some how long! On the plus side my shoulders are lovely.
I am treating myself to two very good bras every couple of stone off. They help while on.
