What to do if breasts sag after childbirth?

I believe that many mothers who have just given birth are very afraid of encountering this problem - sagging breasts after childbirth. Soft and sagging breasts not only seriously affect the beauty of the body and greatly reduce the charm of women, but also have a certain impact on the life of couples. So, what should you do if you encounter sagging breasts after giving birth? What methods can be used to prevent breast sagging? Today, the editor will introduce to you some methods to prevent breast sagging.

1. Strengthen chest muscles

1. Put your hands together and use force

Put your palms together and press your palms hard against each other. When pressing together, the pectoral muscles on both sides of the chest are stretched and tense, and then relax after about 5 seconds. Repeat about 10 times.

2. Hold your wrists tightly and pull them together to tense your chest.

Hold wrists tightly in front of each other, making sure elbows are facing outwards and that the left and right elbows are pulling each other. This is performed after confirming the chest muscle force, same as item 1. However, if you exert too much force and become fatigued, it can easily have the opposite effect.

3. Keep your wrists facing inward and your shoulders open.

Straighten your back muscles and correct your posture. Make a fist with your hand and bring the inside of your elbow toward your body. It is best not to leave your wrists away from your body, open your shoulders, and keep your chest and back muscles tense for 2 to 3 seconds before relaxing. Repeat 10 times with your chest up.

Note: Bad posture has a huge impact on people. People with hunchback posture tend to have shoulders that bend inward, which makes their chests prone to weight gain, making them look weak. If you have a correct posture and your shoulders are stretched backwards without any effort, your chest will naturally stick out.

2. Correct breastfeeding

Developing good habits of correct breastfeeding during the breastfeeding period and weaning the baby at the right time are the guarantees for mothers to have beautiful breasts. Some women are reluctant to breastfeed their children for fear that it will ruin their body shape. In fact, according to doctors' experience, breastfeeding will not cause any adverse effects on body shape. On the contrary, it will make women's body more attractive. Breastfeeding can prevent your breasts from shrinking too quickly, thereby reducing the chance of breast sagging.

3. Tips to add icing on the cake - massage

Massage your breasts for 10 minutes with both hands every morning before getting up and every night before going to bed. The method is: lie on your back on the bed, and massage in a rotating manner from the breast to the nipple, first in a clockwise direction, then in a counterclockwise direction, until the breast skin turns slightly red, and finally pull up the nipple 5-10 times. This can stimulate the entire breast, including the glandular ducts, breast fat, connective tissue, nipple and areola, making the breasts fuller and more elastic.

In fact, breast sagging after childbirth can be prevented. If mothers can follow the above three methods and persist for a long time, it will definitely be effective. In addition, mothers should also pay attention to choosing a bra that suits their size, preferably a special nursing bra, which can support the breasts, prevent the breast shape from changing, and absorb the milk that leaks out during breastfeeding.
