Pregnancy ruined my perfect boobs!

I was a 32AA before I came to MYA. I can’t remember what size implants I had but I think they were 375cc? Had surgery in August 2018.
Post op I was 34DD (I’d started training for a bodybuilding competition so my back grew). Once my breasts had ‘fluffed’ I was so in love and FINALLY felt like a woman!!
I fell pregnant in September 2022 and in June 2023 gave birth to the most perfect, cute little baby boy! However… I’d put on 26kg (6kg was just baby weight and the other 20kg was fat because I ate like a pig!!!) so then my cup size went up to 38E! My boobs were massive at first which was great for a while, until my milk left me and I started dropping weight.
So far I have lost 15kg of fat, so I am now back down to 65kg (5kg to go!!).
Anyway… I’m starting to fit into my post op bra’s again (still a little tight!) but I hate my body. I’d worked so hard all my life to be this fit, active, toned, muscular woman and have some breasts that topped off my look… now I’m left with these horrible loose, saggy excuses for breasts and a saggy, jelly like belly that reminds me of a raisin. I was always under the impression that pregnancy wouldn’t affect my new breasts, or at least not much… but I get I was also ignorant to the fact that I’d never put on so much weight before and then had to try and lose it all so quick before I had to completely change my whole wardrobe! I’ve gone from a size 8/10 to a 16/18 and now back to a 10/12. My point is… I’m feeling sorry for myself and if you are pregnant and have already had surgery… just think about the consequences when you’re wanting to stuff your face with junk food ‘just because you’re pregnant’ :L
The before & after type photo is pre pregnancy vs pregnancy and then the other two photos are post pregnancy … all with implants

Hi Rachel, I’m sorry to hear you’re feeling this way. Sadly I don’t have anything to advise, except, regardless to whether you had implants or not before pregnancy, your body would have changed either way.
Your body has just created the most precious thing and you should be proud of it. No, it might not be exactly what you’d want it to be right now, but you should be proud of yourself and you can get it back.

I have yet to have my implants as I keep getting cold feet. I don’t know what size I am, but I’m flat as an ironing board, size 8 on top, size 10 bottom,my stomach sticks out more then a padded bra does and at times feel incredibly inadequate as a women. But then I remember I have birthed 4 beautiful children and that gives me the wonder woman feeling I can only presume having breasts would feel like.

Embrace your new body, your new chapter as a mother and work on yourself inside and out – you can and will fall in love with yourself again.
