breast implants???

I really dont know what to expect.
I had implants done over 12 years ago when I was young and a bit stupid! I do like them but something I wish I never did. Now that Im prego I really dont know what to expect. When I had them done it was just after losing alot of weight which was one of the reasons I did it...stupidly thinking I would never gain any weight back (which of course I did and they are bigger then I ever imagined) Now I know they are going to keep growing :(
But my bigger fear is breast feeding the only thing I remember the dr who did it telling me is I will just have to wait and see what happens. Anyone else in my shoes or know of anyone who has implants and either can or cant breast feed?

I wish I could help you out, but I think your doctor would be the best bet for this sort of question.

I had implants done about 4 1/2 years ago. I worry about this as well. The dr. said it is not dangerous to the baby but that depending on how the surgery was done, there may be damage to the ducts and tissues. I guess I will find out in a few months!! I don't regret having them done though!!!

i know doctors say that as long as your implants were done correctly there is no BF'ing issues..the one thing i would check out in ur case is ...aren't you supposed to get revisions..or scar tissue taken out every 5-8 yrs? maybe go for a free consult at a plastic surgeon and ask if they have healed inside well enough to BF...hope this helps!

Unfortunately I think it's just a wait and see -
My cousin had a reduction and couldn't get her milk to come in .......
