Big cup size and running

in February 2013 Moms

So I was at my 6 week check up the other day and the mid wife said everything looked good and I could start back up with Pilates and Yoga.  I happen to mention the 2 5K races I have signed up for in May and June. I am nursing and my boobs are now a J/K cup.  She said that running is something I should not do because it could effect my breast tissue, as the bouncing up and down would not be good for them.  Has anyone ever head of this?  I have had a big chest all my life and I have never head this before.

    That sounds like an old wives tale to me. Other than pain maybe if your bra isn't supportive enough, I couldn't see running affect your breast health.

    Totally sounds like me... it sucks! Having a large chest should not prevent you from running, but you do need adiquate support for your lady parts, otherwise they CAN be injured. 

    I bought a nursing sports bra from Motherhood (I know, shock
