I had a breast augmentation done almost 2 years ago. I'm currently pregnant and I'm undecided whether breastfeeding or not for fear of my breast sagging. If I breast feed, will my breast change?

Answer: Breast implants and breast feeding Thank you for your question. Congratulations on your pregnancy. Breasts will change both with pregnancy and breast feeding. The amount of sagging unfortunately cannot be predicted. Even if you don't breast feed, the breast size will increase with pregnancy and will go down after childbirth. Some lucky ones have minimal changes after every thing is said and done! I would weigh the risks/benefits of breast feeding to your baby vs the possibility of needing a lift after the pregnancy. These are definitely good things to be thinking about and planning for! It is about what works for you and your baby. All the best with whatever decision you make.

Answer: Breastfeeding after augmentation Thanks for your question. Pregnancy and breastfeeding certainly can impact breast size and shape after breast augmentation. Ultimate tissue settling, however, is unpredictable. Some women have dramatic changes, others very little at all.
