My DD's got even bigger while I was nursing. When I weaned, they got smaller, and just had sort of a sad, deflated look. Especially around the top. And some sag, although not as bad as they might have. They've really filled out in recent months, though, and they look far better than before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum/page/2#post-1861824 Sat, 13 Sep 2014 23:31:08 +0000 daniellemybelle 1861824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So a LC I know told me that boobs often go back (somewhat) after several years. They will never be as perky from pregnancy/age, but the post-BF empty sock look does improve over time apparently! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum/page/2#post-1861774 Sat, 13 Sep 2014 22:01:57 +0000 bhbee 1861774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CRGmama: if it's any consolation my nipples did go back to their previous state after completely weaning (at least until into pregnancy #2). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum/page/2#post-1861767 Sat, 13 Sep 2014 21:54:00 +0000 .twist. 1861767@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anandam: Down from pre-pregnancy size! I was small BEFORE pregnancy and now I'm even SMALLER. :crying: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum/page/2#post-1861693 Sat, 13 Sep 2014 20:47:04 +0000 MamaChin 1861693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm laughing and crying at the same time at this thread. I was just looking at the boudoir pics I took for my wedding and mentally sobbing. My sexy full 34Bs are now flappy 36Cs, even though I'm still nursing #2! I dread what they will look like after I wean. I am SO sick of feeling my boobs touching my skin on the underside. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum#post-1861466 Sat, 13 Sep 2014 14:58:16 +0000 Kelley_lovelikecrazy 1861466@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Like two cup sizes smaller.

I love my pregnancy boobs right now, but kinda dreading what #2 will do to them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum#post-1861067 Sat, 13 Sep 2014 00:50:42 +0000 sunny 1861067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I totally took my pre-pregnancy boobs for granted. They look so sad and saggy now. I wear the same size as before but they aren't as full and perky. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum#post-1861066 Sat, 13 Sep 2014 00:41:07 +0000 mlm2934 1861066@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: what @Arden: said. At 9 weeks PP, and zero nursing, I'm very sad about the state of my "deperked" boobs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum#post-1861047 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 23:26:07 +0000 Kimberlybee 1861047@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My boobs use to be so full and perky, a full 38C. I didn't even nurse, only pumped for almost 3 months and they are not perky anymore and just look droopy without a bra on. They look okay with a bra. I was one of those girls who said "I would never get breast implants". Never say never, because now I do want one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum#post-1861046 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 23:23:04 +0000 anandam 1861046@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wait... does all this talk of going down a cup or two mean down from your prepregnant size or down from your breastfeeding size?</p> <p>My LO #1 is only 4mos and still EBF so I have no experience with weaning or what comes after! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum#post-1861033 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 22:14:16 +0000 anewme 1861033@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was a small B, full A type before babies. Then got up to a full C nursing my son. I'm back down to my original with a little more to spare but it's definitely lost it's perk and volume. Kind of like a deflated balloon. I don't mind the small boobs at all, i wished for large boobs all my life but when I had it I realize how much I disliked it. But I wish I would have more of that round effect! Sigh </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum#post-1861015 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 21:40:09 +0000 Mrs. Chipmunk 1861015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i was a small B or big A. i wouldn't call them saggy, but there's no more oomph above the nipples...not that there was much to start. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum#post-1861012 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 21:37:25 +0000 mrsrain 1861012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It wasn't pretty to start with (HH pre-baby) and now it's even worse (almost 4 months pp, nursing). I plan to get a breast reduction once I know I'm done nursing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum#post-1861002 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 21:19:15 +0000 Mrs. Bee 1861002@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kml636: :shocked: :crying: :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum#post-1860980 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 20:57:09 +0000 CRGmama 1860980@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In the same boat as @travellingbee. Relatively the same size (I am still nursing but only twice a day) but now just soft and sad, so they look smaller. And I HATE my nipples now. I also didn't get a single stretch mark my whole pregnancy. Then my milk came in and both boobs are covered. They are fading a bit now thankfully. I definitely took my pre-pregnancy/baby boobs for granted. I will 100% get a boob job after we are done having kids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum#post-1860916 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 19:17:44 +0000 kml636 1860916@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Looking like a scene from national geographic over here. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum#post-1860915 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 19:08:48 +0000 dolphin 1860915@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh.

After weaning DD they armed to go back to normal 36C, but I got pregnant two weeks later and am now back around 36DD. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum#post-1860898 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 18:49:04 +0000 Ash 1860898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine are the same size... Just softer. Not really less perky... But definitely not the same! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum#post-1860892 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 18:24:21 +0000 Charm54 1860892@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a breast reduction a few years ago and luckily they seem to be generally the same. I was worried they would get bigger and go back to the pre-reduction size. They might be a touch saggier? I didn't nurse , I EPed &amp; formula so not sure if that plays a part or not. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum#post-1860891 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 18:21:56 +0000 Smurfette 1860891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine are bigger but flap jacks </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum#post-1860885 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 18:17:19 +0000 Arden 1860885@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: Nope.

Was a 36c before babies, still a 36c!! Boobs aren't as perky, but they're looking pretty good after nursing both. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum#post-1860854 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 17:45:10 +0000 travellingbee 1860854@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sad, smooshy, saggy... Not really smaller but because they were full and firm before they looked bigger I think. Still a 34C but not cute anymore. :(<br /> @Freckles: yeah I doubt it. I stopped a little over a year and mine are sad as can be. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-boobs-like-postpartum#post-1860844 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 17:31:49 +0000 BananaPancakes 1860844@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They are sad.
