I'm 24. Been breastfeeding for 3 months. I plan on doing it for a year. I workout but am I going to need surgery for my boobs to look good again?

because they have been different sizes throughout the last year or 2 its stretched skin and because you are losing weight the breasts (actual breasts) are smaller than the skin.\n\nAs you lose the weight and are back to your old size then your boobs will go back to the size they were. Try getting avon breast cream and massage daily after a bath and do chest exercises and you will go back, maybe not as good but you will be happy.\n\nMy sister went from an F to a DD and her boobs are now fantastic again after she breast fed twice with her two kids..\n\nremeber massga eyour boobs as this firms them! and do press ups on gym ball as this will help get your body back too

Yes, I have them done, Yes it hurts.  When the needle passes through the skin, it sends an intense flash of heat down the entire side of your body.  It takes a couple of months for them to heal and they are extremely sensitive to anything during that time.  If you are a belly sleeper, find a different position.  As far as women not being able to breastfeed that is just pure bull.  I am a mother of 2 and breast fed both of my children.  Good luck with it.  It does take a lot of nerve.  My first set got infected and I had to take them out and have them repierced so I have been through it twice.  My recommendation is to have them measure your nipples and pierce with a barbell.  Once they heal you can insert rings.  This worked perfectly for me on my second go 'round.

You should take them out now because your boobs are gonna get huge. Im 24 weeks pregnant. your nipples might start to push out the rings and they can get infected. I still have my bellybutton ring in tho. LOL

It's actually a common problem for anyone who has had a dramatic weight loss. The part your doc went wrong was not making you aware of this in the beginning. My sister went in for gastric bypass surgery, and the first thing they told her about was the excess skin. She's currently saving up for cosmetic surgery. I had the same problem after I had my second son. My chest was 32c before I had my son, and by the time that he was born they were a 42DD. After I stopped producing milk, they shrunk back to their old size only they hung like two water balloons in tube socks lol. I did have surgery done to bring them back up. It took me a year to save up the money for the surgery. But I couldn't be happier. So try throwing all your extra change in a coffee can, cut out the unnecessary things in your life (like I cut out my Starbucks coffee and cigarettes) and put that money in the can. Before you know it you'll have the money to get it done.

Don't worry about loosing breast size, what makes a woman attractive is confidence, if loosing the weight will give you confidence, make you healther. Then don't worry if your boobs will be small. I mean look at 90% of models. They have like....no boobs. It's all these bimbo actresses that have ginormus boobs. And while you will loose some breast size, it will be good because they will fit your new body and not look out of proportion

Weight loss will not chance the size of your breasts.  The only definitive way to change breast size is through surgery.

I know when I breastfeed my daughter I didn't have a period for about a year, but as soon as I started to ween her off it came back.  You might want to call your doctor.

Hi, I have a friend who had breast augmentation done. She was about an A before the surgery. She did not go really big, about a full B-small C, but she was very thin, and did not have a large chest, but apparently she did have enough skin for the procedure. She looks great, and is much more confident than before. The way she had the implants inserted was under the breast, this makes it alot easier for you to breast feed if you ever have children, and it minimized the chance of losing sensation in the nipples. My advice to you is to search on the internet for plastic surgeons in your area, then email them with your questions, that will be the most helpful. Goodluck!

You haven't given any information about being in good shape.  Do you exercise?  Do you have a healthy self-esteem?  You have boobs and that's great, but you could be flabby.  At age 13, half the world suddenly thinks you're great.  Don't mistake that interest for being in shape.

I would, and plan on it in the near future. I'm 48, but was over 325 pounds at age 42.  I changed how I ate, and concentrated on veggies, protiens, dairy and low-sugar fruits.  I got rid of processed sugars, starches, and those things that kept my metabolic rate low.  I've lost over 170 lbs. in the past 5 years, and since I had already had my children, and my skin was so stretched, it didn't shrink back the way a younger woman's would.  So...I have skin that needs to be removed, and I've lost a lot of the fullness in my breasts.  So yes, I would but because this is something I need, and want, to make ME feel good about myself! :)

No products, but you can do chest exercises!  Breasts are made of fatty tissue, but the chest muscles are what is holding them up!

In most cases you can.\nThere are different ways the procedure is done.  They have what is called "overs," which is over the muscle, and "unders,"  which is, of course, under.  It is more likely to be able to nurse if the implant is put under the muscle.\nAlso, depending on where you have your incision can play a role in this.  If the incision is say in the crease, or in the armpit, you are less like to cause damage to the milk ducts, than say if you have the areola incision.\n\nThis is a great website that answers a lot of questions on breast augmentation:  http://allaboutplasticsurgery.com/

My wife breast fed so the extra weight just slipped off. At the end she too had around 10 pounds or so and just had to hit the gym. She focused on abdominal exercises as tolerable to strengthen that area back up (don't go overboard though, it takes a couple of years for them to heal naturally and you don't want to tear anything worse than it already is), and mostly did cardio for overall fitness and calorie burning.

Hey don't feel bad for this.  I am 29 and I have small breasts.  I wear a B cup, but I don't have a lot of breast tissue around my nipple area.  Even my breasts are small I think they are very beautiful.  I like that my nipples are so soft, pink, perfect roundness, and since my breasts are small it makes my nipples stick out more (very attractive for my man).  Look to yourself and you will find some things you like about your breasts even though they are small.  Stay natural, it is the secret to everlasting beauty.

Been there, had it. You do have to wear a support for a few days and ice the area to reduce swelling. That said, overall it's not bad. Right after the surgery I wasn't in the best of shape, but by the next morning I was walking around no problem, and within a few days I was pretty much back to my routine. Very low risk of infection as it's done on an out-patient basis. \n\nSounds like your doc is being cautious, which is not a bad thing. But I had a pretty positive experience overall, and the 'benefits' (no worries) are well worth it!

My mom is in her mid-to-late 40's and has been in your shoes her entire life.  We have all tried to get her to have a breast reduction but she is scared of losing her nipple (one of the complications of surgery).  Now she has found a wonderful plastic surgeon with a fantastic nurse and is planning on having it done in the next year or so.  The nurse at the doctor's office said the recovery for someone having implants is painful (they have to move the implants a lot) but the recovery for a reduction is almost painless, and she has seen about a thousand go through their office for both surgeries!  I had a coworker that went through the surgery, raved about it afterwards, and when asked about how it affected her nipples, she said they were actually more sensitive now than before!\n\nDon't forget to make sure your surgeon (if you decide to do it) is board certified and has done many surgeries of this kind.  Go see more than one until you find the right one.  Most doctors don't charge for consultations and some even offer free learning seminars at their offices about their procedures where you can ask questions.
