Implant may interfere breast feeding, women with implants may be more likely to have difficulty with lactation than those without.
There is no doubt that pregnancy affects the aesthetic result of your breast augmentation. Since the vast majority of patients in my practice present with postpartum changes to their breast it does not make sense to go through another pregnancy which may affect the aesthetic appearance of your breasts. you are aware of all the changes your body goes through, especially the changes your breast go through during pregnancy and after breast feeding. Unfortunately there is no way for a physician to determine if you will get that saggy look again until after you have had your baby and you are done breast feeding. the stretching and shrinking of the breast tissue during pregnancy and breast feeding may cause changes that could require some future surgery. Either bigger implants or a lift may be in your future.
Further Concern has been raised about the possible effects to the nursing infant if mothers with implants breastfeed. This concern was initially raised in reports that described esophageal dysfunction in 11 children whose mothers had implants. Milk may be contaminated with ethylene oxide, Platinum and silicon, however further studies are needed to confirm the level of contamination and harm of the implanted breast milk.
