I was told to wait 2 years before writing off the fact that my boob will never be more than pancakes. I didn't wait that long between weaning my first and getting pregnant again. I've been dried up for 6 months after weaning my 2nd and it seems like they're trying to come back. But then again, I think I forgot what they used to look like LOL
-
my boobs sort of came back between 1 & 2; i hope again after nursing ds2!
-
Pancakes! But I've been pregnant or nursing since 2009.......
-
Mine are total pancakes after one baby. I miss my early 20's perky boobs. I'm think about a reduction and lift after we are done having kids. But we'll see if I want to even put myself through that!.
-
@KT326: I have told DH that I am definitely getting a "mommy makeover" when I'm done having kids. After seeing me labour he thinks I deserve whatever I want. I'm going to ride that train all the way to nip, tuck and lift land.
-
Nope. After 2 kids (and only really nursing 1 of them) they are so flat and floppy.
-
I only nursed for 7 weeks and so far (1 year out) they don't show any signs of coming back. They are the most depressing little pancake things.
-
I'm still nursing my second, but if the 7 months off between 1 and 2 are any indication, I don't expect my boobs to come back. I expect to have saggy boobs from here on out.
-
Mine mostly came back after DS 1. They are less full in general. I'm pregnant again, so I'm enjoying much fuller boobs right now! I know they won't last forever!
-
Meh. That's what a good bra is for
-
@blackbird: Agreed! Once I got fitted with better bras after weaning, they looked a lot better. I'm nursing #2, so we'll have to see how they recover with the next weaning.
-
mine did mostly. but we're planning on 3, so i have no illusions that they'll be the same! DH seems to still like them.
-
Nope. But I'm preggo again so they are full now!
-
Nope, it's so sad.
-
I'm not done breastfeeding yet, but am I the only one who's excited that my boobs are going down in size? It's like the breast reduction I used to fantasize about. Nothing too major, maybe DDD to D? Maybe I'm crazy
-
Come back...what do you mean by "come back?" When I was nursing I had amazing, full, luscious, beautiful size DD boobs! Now they're back to their old boring small B's on a good day. I want my nursing boobs back!!
Other than nursing days, they were never full - always torpedos when I lean over.
-
I really don't remember what they looked like since I've been nursing or pregnant the past 4 years. They are smaller than nursing boobs, so I'm happy! My husband seems happy and as long as they aren't in my way, I'm happy. Looking forward to getting some nice non-nursing bras during holiday sales, since we've only been fully weaned a month or so.
-
They are the saddest they've ever looked! I'm done nursing my third and I've lost almost all the baby weight so they're just...deflated. Still perky-ish (I do tons of chest exercises) but very small with tons of stretch marks.
-
@mediagirl: HAHA! I would love my nursing boobs back too!
-
My boobs look basically the same they did the day I weaned except a bit smaller. It's been about 6ish months?
-
@Reese: bahahaha. I like that. Nip, Tuck and Lift Land. I'll be going there too if I can ever afford it.
My boobs never went back. Honestly, before being pregnant my boobs were the one part of my body that I was super happy with. They were great. Now they're super sad little pancakes.
-
Oh gosh, I hope they do. My nursing boobs are so huge that sometimes I am tempted to wean just so they will go back to normal. I was a D/DD pre baby, and now I am a G cup. I have a hard time minimizing them in clothes.
-
Nope. Mine are smaller and floppier. I'll definitely be getting a boob job once i'm done having kids.
-
Mine did after #1. It took a couple of months though for the breast tissue to reform. #2 self-weaned a month ago and they are SAD pancakes. If they don't come back by early next year, I'm buying a new pair now that we're done!
-
I was wondering this after my first weaned, but it pregnant immediately, so I've been pregnant or nursing for more than 3 years, and I still have another year or more of nursing this baby hopefully.
I'm with @blackbird: that a good bra can work wonders! So it's more that I want to know how lingn after weaning I should wait to go get fitted for some really good bras.
They are quite full now (pregnant) but def not looking their best since my nipples are saucers and I can't stand anything tight around my chest so I wear cheap stretchy bras all the time. Meh.
-
@Rainbow Sprinkles: lol I had that thought this morning. I miss my E's. I look super top heavy now that I'm closing in on my pre preg weight
-
@PrincessBaby: if my boons don't go back after nursing our last I want to get a lift, but I'm afraid of the pain!!!
-
This isn't giving me much hope
I weaned my son about 2 months ago and now my boobs look so sad. I always preferred them on the small side, but now they're just so deflated.
-
Mine were pretty sad for a few months after LO1 and I was worried they would be flat pancakes forever...but then they returned to normal. Then I got pregnant and they got big again and now I'm pumping, so who knows what will happen this time.
-
My very large boobs were lower after weaning, and that didn't change. But they also had a sad, deflated look - especially around the top, and that did get better. We'll see how they bounce back after I wean my second child, but I'm optimistic.
-
They were definitely softer post weaning, and they kind of came back, but just barely. Hoping they do post BF with #2
-
Mine are mostly back, although not as full. I actually don't mind since I always thought my pre-baby boobs were a bit too big for my frame. I feel like I look more proportionate now.
-
They were never perky, but they are kind of flat now. I have some good bras that make them look their best.
-
Sigh, I have always had large boobs. Before kids they were big and full, after kids they are deflated, saggy, and sad. I told DH I'm saving up for a boob job, I'm getting them reduced and lifted when we are done.
-
I'm back to an A, and they look about the same. I was hoping that they would be a smidge bigger.
-
I've weaned for like 1+ month so far and pancakes. I don't see how they can magically perk back up?!
