    Oh, I figured that out too, Madelene, because I've of course read a lot of your posts on the forum elsewhere
    I just wanted to warn fellow readers that losing weight while breastfeeding can be quite disappointing, especially if you expect it to happen much faster than with bottle-feeding.
    By the way, your reasons for choosing breastfeeding largely match mine, especially that it's healthy for both baby and mother and helps with bonding through the 'necessary' closeness and through the hormones. I personally benefited a lot from the calming and sleep-inducing effect of oxytocin - the hormone that triggers the let-down reflex - and from the fact that my cycle stayed away for so long (and thus PMS symptoms).
    My breasts didn't change much once I stopped breastfeeding. Just back to a B cup like before (now they're huge again, haha ), and a bit looser than before, that's true - but that's due to the pregnancy, not breastfeeding.

    Glad we understand each other then.
    By the way, nice that you think the same about the BV.
    Greetings, Madelene
