Fake boobs

Yeah...that was real smart. I had a breast augmentation 5 months ago, and loved the size they turned out. I was going for "Victorias secret model size." However, now they have grown so much above and beyond with being pregnant that I look waaaaay over the top. More like "Penthouse model size"..NOT what I was going for!

And they hurt a ton where the internal stitches still are healing.

I know it was totally elective...but I'm still whining :-) 

I hope they turn out ok after the pregnancy??

Re: Fake boobs

  • Yikes! My boobs hurt so much already I have to wear a sports bra to bed! I can't imagine having internal stitches to deal with as well!

     Good luck to you!

  • MEEE TOOOO!!!!!  OMG they are HUGE!  Like ridiculously huge!  Luckily I had mine done 3 yrs ago so mine are healed...  Ugh...  Sorry, that can't feel good!  My mom told me to wait til after kids...  I don't listen very well...   :)  Are you planning on BFing?

  • Well I had a reduction 15 years ago so I went the OTHER way lol.  I can't even imagine getting pregnant a few months after it (I mean, I was 14 at the time, but even if I were 10 years older....ouch!)  I still get random stabby pains and twinges in my scar areas once in a while, even before I got pregnant.  Youch.
  • My boobs are killing me.  I had small c-cups before.  They are spilling out of D cups now.  I always wanted bigger boobs and now I am thinking be careful what you wish for!!

     

    Hopefully mine stop growing soon (I can only imagine what they will look like with milk in them!)

  • Ha!  My mom told me the exact same thing, but of course I didn't listen either :-)  

    I would really like to breastfeed...I had been told by a couple doctors that BF is totally fine after having implants, and it reduces your chances of being able to BF a very very minimal amount (mainly only if there are complications).

    So I really hope that I will be able to! Are you?

  • I had mine done in 2001, had DS in 2008, so they had completely healed by then.  Last time, they didn't seem to grow much until close to the end of pregnancy.  They were huge when I was EBFing, though!  I remember looking down while DS was eating at a boob that was much bigger than the baby's head.  A little freaky!  After weaning, they went back to pretty much exactly the way they were before pregnancy, with maybe slightly looser skin, but nothing noticeable.  So far this time, they haven't grown.  Incidentally, I was able to EBF & pump for 5.5 months with DS (my incisions are under the breast).  My supply tanked after that, but I don't think it was due to augmentation.  I'm confident that I can BF much longer this time!

    I had mine done years ago. I definitely plan on BFing too. The women on Breasfeeding had quite of few women with Breast implants and they are doing just fine.
