What happened to your breast's once you had stop
Ds has self weaned at 16 mths - tho a week after his "final" feed, we found
that the only that soothed him during the night when his chicken pox was trully tormenting him was a breastfeed - hurrah they still produced. Anyway, what can I expect of my breast sizewise. They went from 40DD to 36J and I just wondered when, how fast etc I might lose a few cupsizes! love Clare -- Clare L |

My DS is mostly (self)weaned....asks about twice a week now to nurse. I;d noticed some reduction of size in the few months prior, but I'd say overall, they've stayed about the same since. I'm curious if this is they from now on, too. I'm not as big as you, probably about a 38D now, and biggest was about a DD cup, so YMMV as always. Dawn |

They are very soft too, no-one would describe my boobs as perky now at any stretch of the imagination :-) Judy |

It's like they lost their mass. Sad. I was always pretty snooty about cosmetic surgery, but the thought of getting a breast job after this baby is done, just to give me back some perk, not to add size, has crossed my mind. More than once. |

More than once. Mine are the same. I have gone through exactly the same attitude change about boob jobs! Oh great. How long post-BF did the changes occur? Or was it just sort of "ok, baby's weaned, lets have a look at them and see what's become of them" and the changes are noted?? Agreed wrt the mass loss (apparently the fat that is replaced by glandular tissue never "reforms" once the glandular tissue shrinks, if my reading is correct) and the softness. (Confess....how many people were chagrined at their first LLL meeting to see the shape of the "experienced" breasts that appeared throughout the meeting? ;-) When you're still engorged and a bit "Betty Boop-ish" (Boob-ish?) it's hard to imagine the "end-result" or even what they looked like imediately pre-delivery for that matter.) I'm ok with what I've got at this point, but wondering how long is typical for the changes to occur post-BF. *g* one good thing about being a single mom is that whoever sees them next has no "pre-baby" image of what they once were ;-)) Dawn, who's DS has decided he wants to hand-express (pretty funny) |

Mine are already that way, though I'm hoping that maybe, since I'm only nursing a couple times a day, that this is pretty well how they'll be when I wean. Totally with you on the surgery - I don't want more, I just want to haul them up a little. -- tristyn www.tristyn.net "i have heard the mermaids singing, each to each. i do not think that they will sing to me." |

I was kind of hoping my 38Cs would go down a tad after DS weaned, but they
didn't change at all. Even after I went on a diet and lost a bunch of weight, my chest has remained the same. I know, some people wouldn't complain, but I was *happy* with my Bs! -Shannon "Clare L" wrote in message ...

Heh...I think I get to wait a while to answer this question, since I don't think pregnant & weaned boobs count! ;-) (I'm still not sure if ds is really, really weaned, though. He went about 2 weeks without asking, but last night tried for a split second...whatever...) Irene |

They look nothing like they did in the beginning of my first pregnancy. I think the "wear and tear" shows. Not perky at all even though I'm pregnant. I understand the point of view of "my body shows that I nourished a child" etc etc.. but still this is not a good sign I wonder how they'll be after I'm done weaning my second baby. Other peoples' mileage might vary! |
