Bust and pregnancy, what changes?
From implantation , your body begins to make changes that will allow it to carry out this pregnancy successfully, and to initiate breastfeeding of the baby.
Thus, from the very first weeks of gestation, your breast changes under the action of estrogens and progesterone, secreted in greater quantities, and prolactin, which promotes lactation.
As a result, the volume of the mammary glands increases , and you may feel tension and tightness in the breasts, which is not always pleasant. It is also sometimes the first visible sign of this happy event: and yes, some women see their bust grow long before their stomach!
As is often the case, each body will react differently: the chest can increase in size suddenly, in a few weeks, or gain volume little by little over time. Likewise, some mothers-to-be will have to change their bra cup sizes several times, while others will see almost no change: there are no rules!
On the other hand, the same common-sense advice can apply to everyone: by taking care of your bust during and after pregnancy , you limit the phenomenon of “ sagging breasts ” or “ washcloths ” that many fear. young mothers after birth. Because in fact, after childbirth, or at the end of breastfeeding, the drop in hormones often causes a sagging of the bust which can quickly undermine morale!
