What to do if your breasts sag after having your second child

For children, breastfeeding should be the most ideal way. However, many mothers found that after having their second child, their breasts began to sag due to continued breastfeeding. When encountering such things, mothers will not feel good. So, is there any way to change the situation of sagging breasts? In fact, mothers can improve the sagging condition through some breast care methods.

The breasts begin to grow larger during pregnancy, and then experience milk swelling after milk production begins, and then experience shrinkage after weaning.

This kind of roller coaster-like play with huge shrinkage and expansion makes the breasts feel very sore.

Many mothers said that the psychological gap from the proud D cup to the dry A cup is too big!

It's okay if it shrinks, but is it possible to watch it droop at the speed of light?

If you have this problem, don’t worry, there are still many ways to solve it. Remember the following tips. Once weaning is over, Mimi can return to her 20s!

First, let’s look at the reasons why breasts sag after breastfeeding.

Causes of sagging breasts after breastfeeding

Many mothers feel that the process of breastfeeding is the only reason for sagging breasts, but in fact the process begins with pregnancy itself.

When we are pregnant, our bodies begin to prepare for breastfeeding in the future. During this period, the breasts begin to fill with milk, causing the breast skin to be stretched, and the ligaments on the chest muscles will also be stretched as the chest skin stretches.

But ligaments are like the rubber bands we use to comb our hair; once they are stretched, they begin to lose their elasticity.

The extra tension on the ligaments caused by this enlarged breasts is one of the reasons why the breasts may sag in the future.

After the baby is born, the breastfeeding process begins and another change begins to take place in the breasts.

Once you start breastfeeding, your milk will start to swell.

Milk swelling is a terrible thing. Anyone who has experienced it knows it. It feels like the blood vessels and mammary glands are about to explode. At the same time, because the breasts are full of breast milk, they also feel heavier.

It can be said that the ligaments were once again stretched to an unprecedented level.

However, as the supply and demand balance between the baby and the mother is adjusted, the size of the breasts will eventually return to the state during pregnancy and remain so until weaning.

Because of this, your breasts remain large and heavy for a long time, which increases the sagging process.

I finally made it to weaning. Although my breasts started to get smaller, the ligaments were stretched and could not go back, so they felt sagging.

So, how to prevent sagging breasts?

Choose a nursing bra with good support

Many mothers who are breastfeeding are afraid of compressing their breasts and choose bras that do not provide any support at all. They are called bras, but in fact they are similar to old ladies' vests.

Some mothers simply do not wear anything in order to facilitate breastfeeding. After all, when the baby is impatient, just catching him up and feeding him can reduce a lot of crying.

Although you only have one baby, you also only have a pair of breasts. In order to keep your breasts "beautiful" after weaning, it is still recommended that you wear nursing bras! !

Although a nursing bra cannot change the size of your breasts or prevent the stretching of your ligaments, it can be very effective in helping you resist unnecessary sagging caused by gravity.

Try to choose nursing bras that have a certain degree of support and wider shoulder straps. The size should be changed at any time according to the size of the breasts. The size will definitely not be the same in the early and late stages of breastfeeding, so don't make do.

Nursing bras that are the right size and designed properly will not put pressure on the breasts, so you can wear them with confidence.

Maintaining the correct posture while breastfeeding

I have to shirk responsibility. I feel that I have been getting bigger and bigger since I gave birth, and it is most likely due to breastfeeding.

CC is the kind of baby with a hot temper. He feels hungry one second and wants milk the next.

Otherwise, the little girl will struggle and cry for 10 yuan, and will not eat no matter how much you give her. You have to hold her and coax her until she has vented her anger before you can start again.

So in the early days, I was terrified every time I breastfed, fearing that I would be a second late and bring myself unnecessary trouble (workload).

So, I think the mentality of breastfeeding myself during that period can be described in four words: living a miserable life!

No matter whether I am lying down, curled up, or curled up, as long as this position can correctly put the nipple into the baby's mouth in the first time, I can accept it and endure it as long as it takes.

But in fact, incorrect posture can not only make you more likely to hunch over, but also easily pull on your breasts.

Therefore, mothers must pay attention to the correct and relaxed breastfeeding posture after the baby has latched on well.

Try not to hunch over to accommodate your baby, but use a support like a nursing pillow to lift your baby up to your breast.
