I am getting ready to wean my second child and breastfeeding has ruined the look of my breasts. My breasts grew to a size 36E during pregnancy and my once perky 34C's are now very stretched out and droopy. They look great in a bra, but I hate them without a bra. I would love to get a breast lift, but am concerned because I have Factor V. During pregnancy I was on Lovenox twice daily. I am wondering if it is safe to get a breast lift with this disorder. Thanks!
