Is it normal for breasts to get smaller while breastfeeding?

Answer by  patti (29325)

Breasts get bigger through pregnancy and become a bit larger after the baby is born. As the baby feeds, breast size decreases over time and returns to the pre-pregnancy size. It is also likely that the breast tissue will lose a lot of firmness once nursing stops.

Yeah it is perfectly normal, and it is not the breastfeeding which is reducing your breast size. But it is actually one of the side effects of pregnancy.

It is usual for breasts to change in size wildly whilst you are breast feeding. It can sometimes feel as though your breasts are large and full of milk, and sometimes they can shrink and feel almost empty. So long as your baby is gaining weight healthily, it is nothing to worry about.

There is no normal when it comes to your body. Everyone's body reacts differently to things like that. If you are concerned I am sure your doctor can give you some information. Woman's bodies can do all sorts of odd stuff when it comes to hormones. I really would not give it another thought.
