I was wondering to all you moms out there with more than one child, I was wondering if you breastfed or didnt and which one of you guys went flatter than before you got pregnant, I breastfed for only about a week and went flatter than I was before so I was wondering if you guys didnt breastfeed and kept your chest size, I know it is healthier for the baby to breastfeed but I am just wondering, cause if I have a big healthy baby like I did first then I might not breastfeed, unless otherwise.

I breastfed all my children... yes , it left me deflated... but you can sorta build up your breat tissue by doing a lot of push ups, and weight lifting.. STILL your breast will never be the same... sorry to say.

If you breastfeed your child, you should do it because it is best for the baby. Not because it will or won't affect your chest size.
I have breastfed both of my babies for 4 1/2 months. Daughter is age 2 and son is 5 months. I just finished with son and my milk is drying up and almost gone.
I don't think that my cup size has changed from pre-pregnancy size, but I do notice that I'm a little more droopy. I also have gained more weight with the second baby and still have that weight to lose. I am 40 years old and the droopiness may just be from my age. It also may take a while for my skin to shrink back up.
Good luck with whatever you decide.

I did not breastfeed not by choice, I didn't make any milk, with my first child i was a C cup before pregnany after I was an A, second and third child during pregnancy I went from an A to a D during pregnany and enden up at a B cup presently. Which is not a "full" B.

I have breastfeed two girls and am 24 years old. I smaller the first time, now I am bigger then when I started. I am now pregnant again, and hope I stay the way I am, but whatever. That is what implants are for when I am done making Babys. LOL

I have breast fed 4 babies and never returned to the way I used to be. Unfortunately now I am a little droopy, oh well life goes on!

Breast is best. Why would you consider giving your baby less than the best - especially for vanity's sake? Are you crazy? You could always get a boob job if you're unhappy with your apperance afterwards. Don't sacrafice your baby's health and happiness for something only you and your partner see anyway. Don't be so self-centered.

What affects the size/shape of your breast is the rapid gain that occurs when you gain weight and get your milk in. The nursing itself doesn't affect it at all.
