i am 36 weeks pregnant!! I am usually around a 34B, and my boobs have always been perky!!! Well, they jes recently started to get bigger, and i spent like 50 dollars on a nice pushup bra from victorias secret.. jes so my boobs dont get saggy. WELL i jes took a bath, and noticed that my boobs look more towards the ground, and they have NEVER been saggy at all!!!! I might even mention that my nipples are now freaking humongous. I am planning to breastfeed my baby, i am jes wondering if my nipples will go back to their normal size and if my boobs will ever be perky again!!!!??

I recall being told in my natural childbith classes (9 yrs ago)to invest in a good maternity bra during pregnancy (they are not very cute). The underwire in the pretty bras can damage the breast tissue during this change. I bought them durung my pregnancies and my breasts are still nice . Not perky like when I was 20 with no kids, but still attractive. The key is to take care of them.

I was a 34C before I got pregnant and went up to a 36 DD while pregnant. My baby is now 5 1/2 months old and I am still between a D and DD. I don't believe that they will ever be a C again. They are definitely a little more droopy than before I was pregnant, but in the past month or so I have noticed that they seem to be firming up a bit and going back to more of their natural appearance. Don't expect that your boobs will ever be the same as they were before pregnancy, but remember, you are almost a mom, so your boobs should be the least of your worries!

Chances are after you stop feeding your baby your breasts will deflate for a short time but with in a year they fill up again ( at least for the people i know it did ) and they may be more saggy then they were before, my nipples didn't shrink as much, but they didn;t stay huge like after then baby de-latches, But for the time your do breast feed your breast will be the best they ever were, full and big ( hard and uncomfortable at times when your engorged) but it's worth it because your baby will be healthier Both of my children have never been sick for more than 3 days .And i nursed my daughter for a year and am 6 month into nursing my son

Don't listen to the negative people! Yes, you may be perky again. I have a friend who has had 5 children, is 49 years old, never had surgery and is still perky! Her secret? She has always worked out after her pregnancies to lose the excess weight and has kept in shape. Your nipples will go back to normal and your breasts will look better, too.

I've been breastfeeding our son for almost a year (he turns one in a few days) and mine arent saggy. I'm a 38DD and for being that large they are damn perky.
Pregnancy changes your boobs, they are growing and producing milk for your baby. Once you wean things will go back to normal.
Also--
For anyone who wants to try and jump on me for breastfeeding an almost 1 yr old, read your facts before doing so. Its recommended by the American Peds Assoc to breastfeed until at least age 1 (12 months) and by the World Health Org until at least age 2 (24 months), any time longer than that is up to the mother & child.

They will go back to their original size provided your weight goes back too.
If you remain heavy from the pregnancy, your boobs will also retain that size.
I am glad you are breastfeeding. That is best for your baby.
After you recover from childbirth, get together with some other new moms and form an exercise club and go out with your babies. It will benefit all.

i just had my baby and first theyll be beautiful from engorgement then theyll sag like a bag leaking water, they will be horrible and the only thing that will go back to normal is the color of ur nipple, but still breast feed ur baby its the best thing u can do for it, ur breast milk has mandatory antibodies that ur baby will need to fight off germs bacteria viruses and etc, and ur milk has intestinal bacteria that his system will need to fight off things and to protect its intestinal lining but there are remedies to get ur breast back but they wont go back to the same on their own, there are breast supplements and surgeries etc, i know u probably dont want to resort to surgery though

Probably the only to get them to be perky again is a breast lift.

my great aunt told me to where a bra at all times
when you dont have on one your breast are just hanging
but do to pregnancy their heavier so your skin just keeps slowly
stretching.
theres really nothing you can do, but support your breast along with there new changes.........
where a bra
