Do boobs always go back to normal size after giving birth?

[jj-rabbit]

Just curious, i've always been really small and they have grown quite a lot and i've gone up a cup size and would quite like them to stay this size ha ha. Is it just inevitable that they will go back to my usual size after birth or is there something i can do to maybe keep them bigger, was thinking of bust exercises xx

Mine are slightly bigger than they were before my first pregnancy, but to be honest I think that's because of breastfeeding.

Prior to getting implants, mine were pretty small too. With my first two kiddos, mine went up maybe a cup size, then I breastfed and unfortunately, my boobs turned into empty sacs (hence the breast implants LOL). But I've had friends who's boobs went up cup sizes and stayed there, it just really depends on each woman's body.

Mine did also turn into empty sacs! But because im pregnant with my 5th in 4 years, they have stayed pretty big lol

At the moment mine are around a half cup size bigger than they were before, but I'm still breastfeeding.

I have heard of some women ending up with smaller boobs after pregnancy.

it depends with some people then yes but i know someone who lost her boobs and they went real saggy after her baby was born!

I've decided I want a boob job as soon as I can afford it after the baby's here!

[fluffpuffin]

one can still hope, but most people I've talked to said theirs got smaller than before....so, not getting my hopes up too much. xx

I always get nice boobs throughout pregnancy and breastfeeding.. then when the milk dries up I go down a cup size SMALLER than I was before I was ever pregnant. I've always wanted to end up bigger in the end but I always lose them with the milk.

Your breasts will stay large after the birth due to your milk coming in - in fact according to various pregnancy books, they become bigger during this time - and they'll stay larger while you breastfeed. But its normal for them to return to your normal size if you decide not to breastfeed or once you've stopped breastfeeding. However if you do breastfeed and follow the WHO/NHS's recommedation/guideline to breastfeed for 2 years, that'll be 2 years + 9 months of bigger boobs!

Personally I was a UK size DD prior to pregnancy and at this rate I'm worrying how big my boobs will end up as they just keep getting bigger! They are so heavy

i know a couple of women whos boobs are even smaller now than they were before

 

[ellie27]

I am 32+wks now and my boobs have not changed size at all - still 34A!!

I suppose they have filled out a bit more, but definitely not gone up in size!

I am wondering if there is still time for them to grow??

I hope they will not be shrinking after the birth!!!

Guess i'll just have to wait and see. A woman i work with was a size A cup and hers stayed a C cup after! how lucky but yeah i've heard of people going smaller after, fingers crossed mine don't, was just hoping there was exercises i could do to keep them but i guess everyone is just different and it's likely i'll end up the same, or eek smaller x
