I hate my postpartum breasts - Just found out I am a 38G. Yes ladies - a 38G.

34G post-partum until DS turned 8 months. Now I am stuck at 34D. I don't think I will go back to the B (yes B!!!) cup I was pre-pregnancy until I get a breast lift. Pregnancy absolutely destroyed my breasts and they hang so low I cannot even wear pi's without a bra. So sad.

This is me, too. And I'm petite and can't find a bra that will let me shorten the straps enough to actually lift anything!

After a year of breast feeding, I lost a cup size.

yeah, maybe, but they'll just look like empty tube socks. I've always been chesty so I am not looking forward to any more growth! Ack. Maybe i'll have to save up to have a breast reduction surgery in Mexico or India or something. Goodness knows I could never afford it in the states.

Thanks, I feel so much better about myself now! Not.

I think for BCBS to pay for the reduction surgery you can't be more than 10 lb over weight and you have to be able to prove you have had neck and/or back pain for at least a year and that a boob job would fix it. At least that is how much coverage was when I had BCBS a few years back. It was basically worthless to me because I have never in my life been within 10 lbs of my "ideal" 1940's army weight. Ever. Even my doctor said that weight guide they use isn't appropriate for me and my frame.
