If you already weaned....

Please tell me there is some hope for these poor boobies of mine.  I EPd until just before 9 months.  It took a few weeks, but I think I have finally dried up my supply.  My boobs seem so sad now.  They are definitely flatter and look so small.  I have a hard time remembering my pre-pregnancy boobs, but I almost think I am smaller now.  Did your boobs change at all over time after weaning?  I'm going to need a lot of push-up bras with padding if they don't!!!

...with that said, I wouldn't trade being able to give my son breast milk for the first 9 months of his life.

I didn't bf my first but just the pregnancy changed my boobs for ever. I'm not sure about after bfing I weaned my second while pregnant with my third so I have no idea.

I EBF my son for 13 months. My breasts were already on the decline before we completely weaned because we were dropping sessions for a couple of months. (I had a huge freezers stash) they were definitely smaller than my prepregnancy boobs! I was really close to buying some new bras but got preggo with this LO. My boobs are getting back to my nursing size now! I am worried about the deflation to come when I wean this LO but oh well that's what Victorias secret is for right!?! If I were you i'd invest in some bras that help you feel perky again lol.

Thanks!  I definitely need to get some new bras.  I was trying to figure out if I should wait and see if they change anymore since it has only been a couple of weeks or just go ahead and start shopping!  Between pregnancy and EPing, my regular bra collection is in shambles.  My boobs don't know what to do with themselves without a milk-making mission!

I weaned after 19 months, while pregnant, and mine are saggy to the point of laying on top of my now huge pregnant belly.  It's sad, but I guess that's what a good bra is for!  I always think about those shows that show women in a tribal community who have all breastfed or had babies and how saggy their boobs always seem.  I think it just comes with the territory - a badge of honor?    Good luck!
