Goodbye to my perfect boobies...

Being the proud owner of a reasonable c cup (upgraded from an a cup about 5 years ago thanks to amazing medical advancement ie boob job) I have loved my boobs since I got them. They are a great normal size and on my tall and not so skinny frame look natural and cured me of my self conciousness from having no boobs.

Last night I was getting out of the shower and looked in the mirror (happens a lot lately as my bump is getting bigger along with everything else lol) only to look a bit closer at my boobs which looked a bit bruised.

On closer inspection I realised I have started to get stretchies on my formerly unstretchied boobs :jawdrop: Whats that I hear you say? Some of you have been through this before which I appreciate and please dont think I am commenting on anyones body but my own but...I guess I just didnt believe it..lol..Of course I would be immune to these mythical stretcies everyone is on about?.especially seeing as my natural boobs are so small????..WRONG!!!!

So now I am frantically rubbing in bio oil and anything else I can get my hands on...cooking spray anyone?? :rofl:

Just thought you could laugh at my horror. I certainly am and I'm glad we get our princess at the end of the day.

I was lucky i did not get them on my BB but i have a stomach full of them:ROFL:
Keep rubbing love, atleast you cant think well if only i had of used that oil !!!!

It is all worth it in the end but i know how you feel!!!

The same happened to me. One day they were just there. Appeared outta nowhere :(
I only got them on my boobs though.
So are yours gonna sag like the rest of us? Or will you still have lovely perky bewbies thanks to the medical intervension??? Lol!

Ahh natty don't stress!
They fade in time, I've got a body full of them, and TBH you can barely see them now they've faded that much! Yes, its horrific when you first discover them, but just think of all the other cool things that your body is doing right now, ie. creating a life!!! :)

hey i have the same boobs as you (if you know what i mean) and i rate my boobs BETTER post baby, heheehe.... will have to wait and see what they are like after this bubba number 2 though.

the stretchies fade and you barely notice them after a few years...

Thanks heaps ladies,

Im not really sad, just surprised I guess...Its a bit ironic that they never grew before no matter how hard I prayed then when I fix them myself they decide to grow lol...

Bjrose I have wondered the same..the implant is under the muscle so its not going to move but I plan to bf an I wonder if the natural bit will go for a slide under the implant or something??? I have the funniest mental image of my nipple underneath haha...Wonder what you think Emma?

Thanks Telly and LMK, Im just going to rub oil in every hour for the next half of the pregnancy. DH will think he has hit the jackpot and Im sure will volunteer to help...

I guess we all end up with different issues post baby..before I was preg I would worry about my body but now I guess I will be greatful it was ok for that long iykwim? I will probably strive just to get back to just ok lol...

Eeeek Natty! Me Too!! As you know, I also have a boob job - only 2 years old! Went from a B to a 10D-DD (Depending on the brand of bra!) and I have just noticed some tiny little purple tearing looking marks on the top of my left one only! Bio Oil twice a day I've been told, and while I am obeying that order in hope, I've also heard that really, there's not much we can do! If we get them, we get them! Grrr after all the money we've already spent on them! lol Oh well, our little babies will be worth it, our boobies will still be lovely and perky after we've breastfed and we can always go back for another job after we've finished having the kidlets - If the marks are bad enough we can always get laser done while we're under for implants hehe :) Or we can just wear them as a badge of honour :) It's not all bad sweets!! Although, if you do find the miracle cure, please let me know ;) xx

They'll fade ;) Mine have!

I went from an a to bursting out of a c-cup when my milk came in with my first so they were covered in stretchies which now are hardly noticeable.

Same as raven, I had small boobies that went NUTS when my milk came in (and I loved it!) and they grew so much so quickly that I got stretchies too. After managing to avoid tummy stretchies throughout my pregnancy I felt most ripped off! But now they have completely disappeared already and probably had disappeared before DD turned one. And they were dark red stretchies too. So there is hope, they may be gone soon!

hey, yeah stop stressing.
I have stretch marks on my boobies from when i put on a lot of weight after i was sick, and believe me, they eventually fade. Its all worth it for bub.

They were originally red, but faded to a light silver colour, nd you can barely see them now :)

Aw thanks everyone!
I feel a lot better about it now and I figure I would be a LOT more upset if we hadnt fallen pg by now so why complain about stretching for our baby..:baby:

Thanks again :)

Ah Natty, I feel your pain! Well I'm quite lucky really, I haven't got any stretch marks at all yet but I said goodbye to my fabulous boobs a few months back. I was a 12C and I'm now a 14DD - quite large for someone who is a size 8-10 and only 163cms tall!!

My boobs look so foreign these days I think I would look more at home with a bone shoved through my nose hanging out with a tribe in Africa! The girls seem to spend more time in my armpits than on my chest lately!!! :rofl:

Pregnancy - what a joyous experience. LOL!

Darling, there are far worse ways to loose your perfect boobies (having a baby is a very nice way for it to happen)! I'm having a mastectomy later this year (early breast cancer) and trust me your post-stretchies boob job will still look at lot nicer than the boob job I'm having LOL.

Fortunately for both of us...it's nothing that a great bra and lovin' yourself can't fix. No one knows but you and your DH and lets face it you're such a sex goddess that he'll never complain...;).

As one who never liked my boobs before falling pg, I have to say that in the last couple of months my boobs have never been better...and I credit continued BFing for that. They got smaller (relatively speaking - nothing to alarm the admirers of them...and I have some shameless admirers!) and a bit softer back in March/April and have filled out since.
Once I started BFing I took on a new relationship with my bb's! I hope the same happens with you :)

Lol...

Taurean you cracked me up..Thanks for the happy funny view...I do think its better to laugh as nothing will stop it anyway..They are actually getting more stretched in the last couple of days but Im over worrying, having said that the bio oil is a'flowing hehe...

Marydean Thanks for the reality check too, I feel like nothing I say can express how I hope it goes as well for you as something like that can...makes the stretchies sound a bit lame hey?... My mum and her mum both had mastectomies and Im pretty worried about it too having had some scares but so far so good. As for being sexy..How did you know?..lol ;)

Mayaness I hope I have the same good experience you had, thanks for the BF encouragement too..I wasnt even going to attempt it but have come around and now am looking forward to feeding my baby.

Thanks ladies, I love the range of experience you all have shown me when it comes to not only this topic here, but most other things I have wondered or worried about being covered here on BB its great to get all the different perspectives on a topic.
