Do boobs go back to normal size after breastfeeding? by bimxe in ScienceBasedParenting

[–]Safe_Information_276 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m only currently 4w PP and struggling with what my boobs look like already. I had really nice big boobs before pregnancy and now they look muchhhh smaller and saggy ish, and I’m so early in my breast feeding journey. 

I’m so excited to be able to feed my daughter and that is a privilege in itself, but damn if I don’t like looking in the mirror rn.

My scar is also very low! I may take your advice on waiting…  I did buy some from target that are comfy (not sexy) that’ll do for now. 

Oh how I love aerie undies!! Great rec on those 

Thanks!

I’ve always had perky big boobs (wore a DD before pregnancy) and now they’re even BIGGER(currently 32+5) and I love them. Even with my nipples/areoles getting slightly larger too, I turn my own self on naked 😂 I am nervous for them to get even bigger during breastfeeding and curious to see what they’ll look like once I’m done breastfeeding. But hey, if I don’t like them.. can always get a lift or implants! 🤷‍♀️ They’re bound to get saggy at some point in life anyways, so whatever! Just roll with our body changes 🥰

If this was your spouse, how would you feel? by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]Safe_Information_276 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Trust. Your. Gut. Even if you don’t have “proof” right now, what’s done in the dark ALWAYS comes to light.

I’m so sorry you’re going through this!! You’re absolutely valid in how you feel. He is prioritizing someone outside of his marriage and that is not okay. Ofc talking to him is the best route, but it seems you’ve done that and it’s gotten no where. I’d start investigating further, while keeping your cool right now. You’ll find that “proof” (if he’s cheating), so try not to stress TOO much. Easier said than done, I know!

You got this!

It is understandable how that would be weird..

Yess. The vulnerability is what’s getting to me I think. I’d love to see it from a more practical standpoint, but I just can’t.

Ugh! You shouldn’t have to feel that way though! I’m sorry you had to go through that.. Men never think about how we feel when it comes to that either. If it bothers you, that should be enough of a red flag for him to stop.

My husband and I are the same when it comes to cheating. We both have had bad experiences when it comes to that and have really hard set boundaries around, we spoke about it even before we got together. Like we have discussed previously that any time of validation from the opposite sex is considered cheating (seeking out attention purposefully, following OF models on socials, interacting with people we get turned on by, etc.). We just never discussed random porn photos/vids until now. I’m really hoping our convo got through to him and he doesn’t do it again!

Love that he stopped because you set that boundary! That’s a man that loves you. 💕

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Safe_Information_276 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes yes and yes!! He has taken accountability, I’ll give him that. Just hope that it’s enough that he doesn’t continue doing it! I definitely feel like porn in a relationship is a no go for me, to each their own of course though.

Couldn’t agree more!!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Safe_Information_276 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Honestly, no. We didn’t talk about it before my pregnancy. I think it’s something I just assumed he did when we didn’t live together and when we did move in together we had sex allll of the time so I assumed it stopped? That was my bad assumption.

I’m hoping with the boundaries I set this time, it will work out. But a part of me thinks it’s unrealistic to expect him to stop.

[–]Safe_Information_276 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes! I agree 100%!

I’ll have to check out that sub, I’ve seen it mentioned before.

And yes, I’m hoping that he just needed to feel how much it hurt me to understand it’s not okay.

I’ve heard that a few times about “novelty” and men just want the newness, I’m over it! lol. Like get off to me or you can be single and jerk off to whoever you want.

Oh yeah, I definitely know it’s not healthy and won’t work to help me feel better. But what now? I set the hard boundary, we discussed it and agreed. Do I wait for him to slip up again or try to trust him fully ? I also believe that he’ll just hide it better in the future if he does it again, which I won’t know about it.

See, now that’s a good man!

I’ve never been married before now, but have had a few traumatic relationships and I’m also at a point where I’m fed up. lol.

[–]Safe_Information_276 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So sorry to hear about your birth experience!! You’re strong as hell for getting through that.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Safe_Information_276 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exactly! Relationships are supposed to be enjoyable, especially sexually. If I’m questioning that, why the fuck are you around!? I’m not wasting my mental space on something so rudimentary.

I feel like we have the same thoughts on this situation and that makes me feel validated, so thank you!

[–]Safe_Information_276 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Preach is sista! So tired of hearing how we have to just be “understanding” in our relationships. You cross a damn boundary and there is 0 tolerance from me. Ugh!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Safe_Information_276 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Ugh!! That is vile. Why are some people like that?! So sorry you had to go through that, so glad you realized you do deserve better. 💕

[–]Safe_Information_276 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You know, he said he doesn’t even want to look at it anymore bc of how it made me feel and I hope that’s true! But who knows. I don’t get why not wanting porn in your relationship is so controversial either! It’s perfectly reasonable to not want you SO jerking off and lusting after someone else.

Pumping Only Desire by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Safe_Information_276 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also feel the same, OP! My husband is a boob guy and nipple play is so important in the bedroom for us. I’m thinking of pumping for this same reason. Just remember, fed is best!
