boobs after pregnancy. bfing vs ffing
i am curious! entertain me!
i've read that it is pregnancy that changes your boobs, not necessarily breastfeeding .
i bf and i pump twice at work and my boobs have changed!! i thnk it is the pump that is really doing a number on my breast tissue!!
i am afraid to see what is going to happen to them when i stop bfing and they really deflate! 
anyhow, can you tell me if whether you bf or ff and tell me what is up ( or down) with your boobs?
tia!

Re: boobs after pregnancy. bfing vs ffing
Funny that you posted this, I was just going to post to ask those who stopped BF if you noticed that you have smaller boobs.
Mine are like non-existent. My DH said the other day, "I was trying to remember your boobs b/4 you BF"...aka "where did those go??!!!"

Re: boobs after pregnancy. bfing vs ffing
I FF my DS. I only breastfed for 3/4 days. My boobs are def. not the same. They have deflated a bit and are heading south a bit. I am still the same size though, they are just different.

Re: boobs after pregnancy. bfing vs ffing
I formula fed and mine are exactly the same as they've always been (small but perky).
I have no idea if it is pregnancy that changes them or breast feeding, but I would think it is a combo and I'm sure mine will head south with each pregnancy even if I don't BF.

Re: boobs after pregnancy. bfing vs ffing
my boobs are the same size/shape they were pre-pregnancy. i fit perfectly into all my old bras.
however i am very big (DDD) so they haven't been perky since i was in the 10th grade! 
i BFed and my boobs did not change at ALL (only got huge when i was BFing but went back to normal soon after i weaned).

Re: boobs after pregnancy. bfing vs ffing
i am FF and my bubbies have stayed exactaly the same i think maybe they just went back to pre preggo size since they grew quite abit with the pregnancy but other then that no changes what so ever its not even a noticable change.
just wanted to add that i didnt even attempt to BF, and i was only engorged for 2-3 days tops

me too! I was a 34 DDD before getting pregnant. I am still BF and have awhile before i can see how much damage was actually done. The biggest difference I see is the skin after a BFing session--it gets wrinkly when my boobs deflate :(
I have some stretch marks on my boobs also. But I don't think I got any new ones while pregnant. I had them since I was 15 because I went from a 32A to 34D in about 8 months. They are light now, and I think they'd be purple/pink if there were any new ones

Re: boobs after pregnancy. bfing vs ffing
Pregnancy is what changes your boobs IMO. After my first DD my boobs were EXACTLY the same. With each subsequent pregnancy they got worse and worse and now they are super saggy.

Re: boobs after pregnancy. bfing vs ffing
ugh. I BF for 13 months (not exclusively). My boobs are non-existent. They were small to begin with, but now I joke that I have A minuses.
My DH said they are deflated.
oh well.

Re: boobs after pregnancy. bfing vs ffing
I FF and mine are definately smaller, but I wouldn't say they are saggy. Maybe not as perky but defiantely not saggy

Re: boobs after pregnancy. bfing vs ffing
I BF and my boobs are not the same. I was normally very perky and could get away without wearing a bra, not that I did. Now, they are saggy and huge since I'm still BF. I'm sure they will look even worse when I stop BF.
I may have to get a lift after I'm done having kids.
