Breastfeeding?

Question

I was currently a 36DD, since being pregnant I've gone up to a size 38DD. My bras are tight on me yet again so I reckon I've gone up a size again. I am terrified to try out breastfeeding once my baba has been born. I'm scared it's going to hurt and cause me problems because of the size I am. Can anybody please reassure me on this? Am I being stupid worrying about it?

Answer

I went from a 32F to a 32M. I have no issues breastfeeding. The only grievance I have is a have to hold my breast or it will fall out of baby's mouth. But if I put a blanket under it I can feed hands free. I exclusively breastfeed as well. My baby will be 4 months old on Saturday and has never had a bottle. Getting started breastfeeding can be tough and painful for anyone regardless of breast size and yours aren't that big. Don't psych yourself out before you even try. That'll make it more difficult. Remember breast is best and good luck! 😊

Answer

My best friend went up to an H and exclusively breastfed her baby until adding solids of course, for 18 months with no issues.

Answer

Breast feeding hurts at first when you don't know how to get your baby to latch, but your breast size won't effect breast feeding at all.

Answer

I'm a 34F and I breastfeed. Starting can be kinda weird as your nipples adjust. Just work with your lactation consultant a lot before you leave the hospital. And please go get professionally fitted for a bra. I walked in to be fitted wearing a tight 34 DD and fou,d out I should be wearing the F! It was shocking
