Too small

I really would like some advice. I had my implants done in Dec 2007 and i had 300cc unders! since having them i fell pregnant - i breast fed for only 3 weeks as i got engorgement and my nipples started bleeding, my daughter is now nearly 1. I now feel my boobs have shrunk and i am also experiencing a shooting pain in my right one. Has anyone else experienced them shrinking? I just feel really down about it because i have spent all that money and they've shrunk - I want them bigger!!

Please help!

Hi...

I breastfed my 3 children and each time my natural breast size decreased. It is only normal that this will happen with implants too. I think it's to do with the pregnancy hormones more than the actual breastfeeding itself. This is why I waited to have my family before having a ba. If you are having anymore children your boobs will increase and then decrease again. My advice, have your kids, see them shrink then you'll probably need to get another ba to take them back to original size.

Definately has to be a consideration for pre-op, pre-baby girls. Won't happen to everyone, some women find their breasts increase in size, but unfortunately most will decrease

Love to see the result !

Can I see your pictures please? I am thinking about having a BA but not certain about the size 300 or 340 cc
I would love to see your result. How did you feel after the op. Was is very sore? I have two children and need to be able to handle things after the operation.

Hi ya

I had my BA 9 days ago and had 275cc part unders. I breast fed my 3 kids each for a year and believe me my boobs were not a pretty sight!!
I think you might have the appearance of them shrinking as whether you breastfeed or not you boob is stretched to its max when the milk comes in and then when it eventually dries up your breast tissue has lost some of its volume- which is why you get that empty feeling!! I think you implant is still the same size and still sitting as it always has under the muscle but the breast tissue you always had at the front has lost volume cos of being pregnant and breastfeeding!! Thing is, if you have it put right and then have more babies then the same thing will happen!!
Have just re read this- dont I waffle on!!!!!
