Your once firm and perky boobs experienced significant transformation during the 9 exhilarating months of pregnancy and after nursing. Hormonal changes, and significant changes in cup size will cause the skin to stretch and contract astoundingly over this period of time. While it may seem that our breasts can’t escape from all the shapeshifting, there are a few things that can prevent sagging or even enhance them after nursing.
First things first, keep in mind to try your best to prevent excessive weight gain during your pregnancy. The recommended weight gain varies for individuals as it takes into account your original body weight and BMI. The hormonal changes and fluctuations in your weight may lead to larger, stretched out breasts as your body prepares them for nursing. Over time, the breast tissue shrinks down but the skin remains stretched, causing sagginess of the breasts.
2. Keep your skin moisturised
While you are bound to put on some weight, prep and moisturise your skin, especially your breasts, with creams and moisturisers specially formulated for pregnant women. This not only helps to keep your skin supple and healthy but it will also help in getting you back in shape easier after all the stretching.
When was the last time that you got measured by a professional bra fitter? Get yourself measured at the lingerie counter instead of playing guessing games. The right cup size will ensure a beautiful shape, while wider straps and band will provide the right support and help to provide comfort and beautify your boobs.
4. Breast implant
