Breast augmentation- now or after kids?

 Hi there-

I'm considering a lift with implants now that my DDs went to shriveled albino raisins (probably a B). My question for you all with some experience, we want to have at least one (maybe 2) kidlets and I would like to breast feed. 

Should I just wait until after we have kids to get my boobs done? Will much of the work be changed by pregnancy and or breastfeeding??

Any advice would be appreciated!

Thanks so much!

 I. Would wait until after

Well, you could do it now, as long as you are ok with a lift again after the kids. Pregnancy and breastfeeding will cause the breast to sag, the implant will stay put, the result is something that needs a lift. So it just depends on if you are ok with 2 surgeries. You can breastfeed with implants.

Makes sense, thanks ladies!

Just tell the surgeon you intend to breastfeed later and he will adjust the placement, under the muscle so that your natural breast is not disturbed, but if you need a full lift, then i am not sure. I have breast fed with implants, no biggie.

 thanks lady!

I asked this same question a few months ago. I went ahead and had them done 2.5 weeks ago. I figured nothing was guaranteed and so I wanted to be happy now. Good luck!

 I had a breast reduction in 1984 when I was 30. Went from an F cup to a Full B. At THAT time there were no guarantees that one could breastfeed after the surgery. I decided to take my chances. I had my son at 41 years old, and I was able to breastfeed, but I can't say if my milk production was sufficient -- he had bottles as well. I don't know if it was that he was a big baby: born 10 lbs. 12 oz. or that I did not create enough milk.  But this was 28 years ago, so things may have changed. My nipples were hanging down to my waist pre-reduction, so that could have played a part in how far the milk had to travel when the nipples were moved up as well.

Your breasts will change when you get pregnant and while you breastfeed -- i.e., grow, and then they will go back down, so you might want to wait and see where they end up after all that so you don't have to do it twice.

 Thanks everyone!!

I think for now I'm going to wait and see what happens with us TTC in the next couple of years.

I really appreciate the feedback!
