A vain and superficial thread - I miss my old breasts! - Page 2

post #21 of 24
It's genetics and pregnancy

On the bright side, your risk of breast cancer is reduced significantly with each year you breast feed

For those reading this who haven't nursed yet or who are currently nursing and would like to hear positive stories, I nursed for a total of 8.5 years between two children. I nursed through pregnancy and tandem nursed for 1 year. My breasts are as perky as ever and are the same size as they were before I had my first baby (36C)

Show off

I agree it's mostly genetics- when I was in high school, my breasts were definitely perkier than most of my friends' breasts and many of them already had stretch marks just from slight weight gain or growth spurts. I suppose I was lucky there! Mine are actually still pretty perky, they were really perky still after #3, so hopefully after #5 when I'm done bf, I can re-evaluate. My mom's were perky after 4 kids. So hopefully that's a good sign

I normally have As, so at first I was thrilled to have Cs. Then one shrank back to it's orignal size, so I have one A and one C. Now I don't care what size they are, I just wish they could be the same!

Eh. Mine weren't that great to begin with! BFing has helped me like them more
