Hi IMs I know many mothers out there would feel the same way but this is beginning to consume me.
I've successfully breastfed both my babies (21 months age difference) for 13 months for both of them, so 26 months of breastfeeding.
While I'm incredibly happy my body allowed me to do this (my mum couldn't breastfeed as she has next to no milk come through for both of us kids, and I had over supply) I absolutely hate the look of my boobs now.
I stopped breast feeding almost two months ago and I still wear singlets to bed coz I hate the thought of my partner seeing them or touching them. I avoid looking at them at all costs, even in the shower.
Before babies I loved my boobs! I was a 10C even a D at a few stages. Now I'm lucky to even fit into a B. And there's nothing there just bloody skin. They resemble pancakes!! I think if I got tape and stuck them down it would look like I have none at all... I knew having children would take a toll on my body but I didn't realise it would effect my boobs like this!
I'm honestly considering breast augmentation but I don't know where to begin.
Please, does anyone out there know of a reputable clinic in Adelaide? And would they do payment plans or something? I know it's a lot of money. Money we don't have. I just don't know what to do. There are so many...
I don't think this is a matter of "feeling confortable within myself" because I actually love my body. It's brought my two beautiful babies into the world and I love my stretch marks. It's just my boobs.

I just want you to know you're not alone. Good luck!
Save save save! If it's something you really want you can do this! Youre not alone I'm currently breastfeeding my second and am dreading when I stop :(
When I stopped breast feeding my boobies were so flat, empty and could almost clean the floor ?. But over 2 years later they have now started to look not so flat and dropey. I understand you were looking for doctors and etc, but just want to wish you luck and it can improve.
