My Bra Size after breastfeeding?????
« on: March 31, 2006, 01:02:55 am »
This might not be the right place to post this. 

I stopped breastfeeding a couple of months ago.  Now my breastfeeding bras are to big and my regular bras are still to small. 

Does anyone actually know when your breast are back to size they will stay?  Or does anyone know when can or should I go by new bras.

I am scared to buy new ones and then my breast get smaller and then they are to big. It would be a waste of money

Got the same problem 4 months after stopping. Some women's breast never go back the way they were, well, I don't think any women's breast will be EXACTLY the same as before.

I would buy a new, but not expensive bra and then just replace it with another one once your size changes again :)

It is quite possible they will never go back their original size. I would suggest you buy a new one as suggested because with these changes going on it's a time when they'll need good support , KWIM?

I think I will go buy new ones.  It really sucks having big and small bras.  I like to be comfortable.

Thanks for the information and help.
