It seems that the changes a women experiences to her breast is the result of pregnancy and not a result of nursing. While what changes take place with your breast it is somewhat predetermined by your genetics. It can certainly be modified by your weight gain but the changes that you experience will not be because of your reduction and not the result nursing if you so choose to nurse your new born. There a a whole lot of good reasons to nurse your child so I hope you will consider these before you deny you and your child of the benefits of nursing.
