"If you carry on breastfeeding, gravity is going to take over"
People love to tell me this... Maybe as a way of shaming me, I'm not so sure. However, this simply is not true.
🤱🏽When you get pregnant, your b***s get heavier and larger over a relatively short space of time. It is in actual fact, PREGNANCY that is the risk factor of inducing that extra sag, rather than the breastfeeding.
🤱🏽When you breastfeed, the fatty tissues in your breasts are replaced with milk glands. When you wean, these milk glands shrink and yes you may be left with what feels like 2 deflated bags, in place of your once voluptuous breasts.
😯BUT DO NOT FEAR😯 This is a process, over the next few months, the fatty tissue that were once there will return, and your breasts will return to their pre pregnancy volume.
Things that can cause saggy b***s:
🔸️Gravity
🔸️Ageing
🔸️Pregnancy
🔸️Smoking
🔸️Dehydration
🔸️Genetics
Things that won't cause saggy b***s:
💗BREASTFEEDING💗
So don't be worried about about breastfeeding causing saggy b***s, there might be a little period of sagginess when you stop, but remember, this is a process.
