Can anyone tell me how long after stopping breast feeding I can consider having a breast enlargement? how will that affect breast feeding if I choose to have more children?
There is no one answer as to how long after breast-feeding you can safely get breast implants. That will take the combined consultations of your doctor, plastic surgeon and maybe a lactation consultant. As for how the implants might affect breast feeding down the road, my reading suggests that the breasts do become engorged with nursing, and implant users may find this painful at first. Most people are successful at breast-feeding after implants, but not all. If your milk came in successfully before, many experts think that breast implants will not hamper you when you want to breast-feed again. To look into this further, check with the FDA and La Leche to start. Like with any surgery, there are risks involved. Be smart and be safe!
