Lovely. I have ombre nipples. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-boobs-change-after-breastfeeding#post-296397 Sat, 15 Sep 2012 09:28:04 +0000 Mrs.B 296397@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: I had what I refer to as "amazon nipples" lol they were dark and huge. Now they are once again amazon like because I'm pregnant but they did go back to normal before I got pregnant again. I'm pretty sure it only took a few months. I know it wasn't to long but not sure exactly how long. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-boobs-change-after-breastfeeding#post-296389 Sat, 15 Sep 2012 09:03:08 +0000 PrincessBaby 296389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: Noooooooooo!!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-boobs-change-after-breastfeeding#post-296388 Sat, 15 Sep 2012 09:02:49 +0000 PrincessBaby 296388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyBoecksMom: Good to know!!! If for some reason they didn't change back like @chopsuey just said happened for her, I'd be getting them laser-lightened or something!!

Soooo, I have no idea what they will do? I have. however, made an apt to see a plastic surgeon about a reduction...not sure if I'll have the guts but I've always wanted it done after I'm done having babies. So if they are saggy...it won't be for long! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-boobs-change-after-breastfeeding#post-296091 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 20:26:12 +0000 calsmom 296091@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine are back to normal.

They got pretty darned close (a wee bit saggier) to pre-baby boobs once I stopped nursing.<br /> Now they're on the grow again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-boobs-change-after-breastfeeding#post-296012 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 18:50:09 +0000 prettylizy 296012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs.B: Sing it sister! DH and I agreed that after LO#2 comes and is done nursing, we'll splurge for me and get them put back where they were. All the money I saved on formula is being re-directed to that fund. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-boobs-change-after-breastfeeding#post-295976 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 18:25:53 +0000 Mrs.B 295976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine never went back to normal and I only EBF for a few weeks. Now they are fuller because I'm pregnant again but they usually are very pancake like. I'm going to get them lifted and augmented after I'm done EBF LO due in 4 weeks. I plan to EBF for a year this go round. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-boobs-change-after-breastfeeding#post-295897 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 16:47:21 +0000 pinkcupcake 295897@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyBoecksMom: Your 'pancake boobs' description is so spot-on! I couldn't find the words to accurately describe how my boobs look now, but that's perfect. I get super bummed when I think about how perky and cute they used to be, and now they look like gigantic deflated balloons :( I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that they'll go back once I quit. </p> <p>The fact that I just wear nursing tanks and no bra probably doesn't help, but since LO ALWAYS wants access to boobs, it's a pain to wear a bra :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-boobs-change-after-breastfeeding#post-295787 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 15:35:22 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 295787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsbells: Awww! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to depress anyone :-( If it helps to know, I have a lot stretchmarks on the top and sides of my boobs from when they were growing in during adolescence. They are not even noticeable to anyone but me now because they have completely faded away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-boobs-change-after-breastfeeding#post-295742 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 15:10:55 +0000 Mrsbells 295742@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thes thread depresses me, before baby I had small boobs 36A to be exact so I was happy when they startd getting bigger BUT I realized about a month after the baby arrived that I have stretch marks on the underside of my breasts, plust they look pretty small and not as perky when they are empty, but they look big and nice when I'm engorged.<br /> I guess that means that when I stop breast feeding they will be almost as small as before but not as full and perky. and dont forget the stretch marks! Plus my nipples are more upturned now </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-boobs-change-after-breastfeeding#post-295735 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 15:05:03 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 295735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: LOL - I started a thread about that same thing when I was pregnant because I was worried about that (I guess I'm a little obsessed w/ my boobs - haha). Mine were the same as yours before I got pregnant and I can confirm that they go back.... it took around 3-4 months maybe? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-boobs-change-after-breastfeeding#post-295721 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 15:00:08 +0000 PrincessBaby 295721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about nipples? Do nipples go back? I miss my cute smaller normal-pink nipples. I have these HUGE dark ones now. They're pretty much brown! Not attractive! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-boobs-change-after-breastfeeding#post-295713 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:58:13 +0000 pastemoo 295713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom said hers went back.,. and at only 3.5 months pp I can tell that mine are going back and I am still EBF! I have 9 lbs left to lose, and have already lost 3 inches of my chest since giving birth (I gained 6 inches since BFP).<br /> I think everyone is different. I do hear they will become saggier but a bra in your real size will pick them right back up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-boobs-change-after-breastfeeding#post-295685 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:47:19 +0000 runsyellowlites 295685@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pregnancy in generally can change your breasts..... I didn't bf DS but a few weeks and boy do I miss my pre-baby boobs. le sigh. This go round I'm 5 mths ebfing and I'm sure they will be different when I'm done once again just like the first time, who knows exactly how. I'm just glad DH loves them regardless. lol </p>
