Question
At present iam feedind and almost after 3 or 4 months i will stop feeding now my breast has flow down it looks ugly to see from outside it spoiles my figure do u have any home made remedies for this problem so that i can bring back my breast to a normal shape?

Answer
It isnt the breastfeeding that has made your breasts look not as appealing. it was actually the hormones of being pregnant. The more you nurse, the longer they will stay more full. If you stop nursing now there is a higher chance they will have that "deflated  look " much sooner and fall sooner also.

there are no home remedies other than buying push up bras and nursing and pumping to get more milk in them to make them look more full. The only other options is a breast augmentation which are rather expensive and invasive.
