Anyone else hating their boobs?

  Yeah I am bummed about this change too. It's made it more obvious that one of my boobs is less perky than the other. Ol Righty points downward and you can totally tell because my nipples are monstrous. 

  
  

  I'm actually less self conscious at the gym now because there are so many moms and elderly that go to my gym, I feel like I belong more now.

  The change is a little shocking to me too, but I recently found out why the areolas darken. If your baby is born prematurely and the eyesight isn't fully developed, they can see things in color contrast better than not contrasting. So your areolas darken to help them be able to breastfeed better. Isn't that amazing? I thought it was incredible that my body was making changes to help Baby- just in case he/she is born early! Made me not mind how dark they've gotten.

  Yep... ALthough i wouldn't say I HATE my boobs, just I'm not used to them. I was in the itty bitty titty committee for my life so this is new.... I noticed yesterday that they are now both resting on my belly.

  I've always had big boobs. Like, I had to start wearing a legit bra in the 2nd grade. So the size increase doesn't bother me so much as the constant itchiness. Aside from the fact that finding cute affordable bras is impossible. Nude, black, or white is all I get yippee -.- Along with the itchies theres the huge dark flaky nipples ughh. I know its mainly just colostrum leaking but it grosses me out.

  They look fine but grew tremendously. I was already pretending to be a D cup (a little spillage never hurt anyone) and now my DDD cups aren't sufficient. I look like one giant boob. I stare at all the pregnant ladies in my yoga class and think, why am I the only one with insane sized boobs?
  Man, if they don't produce enough milk when baby comes I'll be like so mad.

  I told my husband last night that I don't want my boobs anymore. The rest on my stomach so wearing a bra is a little uncomfortable. Especially with my newly developed PUPPS. I've always been very modest and have been walking around my house with just underware on lately.

  Ugh I can't stand mine! I was a 36DD prepregnancy and I don't even know what they are now! I've been wearing nursing bras for months! I have this lovely pregnancy pigmentation on my skin so I have brown spots on my boobs! So they are now huge and spotted! Even my husband says, I hope those go back to normal! They just rest on my stomach all day long. No wonder why I have such back pain! Fingers crossed they go back to normal eventually.

  My nipples were pinkish before and now they look purple! Not happy. I saw a stray dog the other day with the long crazy just had puppies nipples and thought that'll be me...

  Nursing dog is a better comparison than orangutan. That's what I feel like sometime LOL.
  
  My biggest complain is how big they are. I was pretty average sized before and now they're big. I liked my boobs the way they were. I hope they go back to their original size someday.

  Yea pregnancy does a number on your boobs but good news is they will go back to their normal color eventually. Mine have always been big but now to add to it I get the large dinner plate nipples that are always erect and crazy dark. Mine also rest on my belly which is oh so attractive when I'm changing and DH is in the room!

  I don't mind how they look. The size and color of the nipple area is weird, but it doesn't bother me. What does bother me is the damn size. I'm longing for the C cup days like crazy. If these babies don't reduce significantly after I'm done breastfeeding, I'm getting a reduction.

  I'm just tired of the incessant leak. They always leak. I even had ol' lefty squirt one night! I'm sitting at L&D while they make sure I'm not leaking amniotic fluid and my boobs are leaking like crazy.

  I'm ok(ish) with the giant dark nipples, but I hate how big my boobs are. Before DS, I was a 34DD. Big, but still in proportion to my body. Now I'm borderline busting out of my 36G bras.
  
  My husband of course, loves my huge boobs, but I've told him they're going back to 34DD status post-babies at all costs. I just wish they weren't so saggy . . .

  Ok this might come off really weird. I work with dairy cattle and I used to milk cows. Since being pregnant I have total respect for the cows I am around. Especially the young cows in their first calving who come in for their first milking. If my boobs hurt half as bad as their udders do it's no wonder those poor girls kick and carry on for the first few days!! Hope this doesn't sound too weird. 3:-O

  I was a 32DDD pre pregnancy and now I don't even know what size I am! I think I'm in a 38DDD. My boobs feel disgusting, they're SO heavy and literally droop over my stomach. Not cute at all, I'm so insecure about them I hold them/ cover them with my arm when I'm naked and DH is around! Just trying to keep my eye on the prize- baby milk!

  I hate that my boobs which were a 40 c pregnant are still the same damn size. Yet they feel heavier and are firmer now. I could also do without the chronic boobs sweat and itchiness.

  Yes, mine have turned a really dark color and big enough for a helicopter to use as a landing spot. They've also sagged they where perkier before as I had a modest beast size but haven't really got too big either just the areola, but really they will feed my baby and that's something only I can do and your the only one who can give her such great nutrition and bond with him or her in that way. And they should fade in color later so keep hope, you will be back to your former self especially since your working out good for you!
