Breast Implants/pregnancy Posted: 01-02-04 19:19pm


I just had surgery with a breast augmentation may of 2002. I want to plan to have my second child in august of 2004. I am terrified I will hurt the baby and or myself through this pregnancy. Should I be worried? Any complications I should look for?

I don't think there should be any problems, assuming you aren't going to breastfeed. Even if they do leak, they are simply filled with saline and that is not harmful for the baby

Implants And Pregant Posted: 01-27-04 16:21pm


I am 12 weeks pregant and I have implants I have had them for 10 years not expecting to have anymore. I would like to breast feed my baby do you think that this is a problem? The implants are under the muscule wall and I don't think they should affect my milk. Can you help me if you know? Thanks ladybug

Not Sure On Breastfeeding Posted: 01-30-04 19:53pm


When I had my surgery, that was the first thing I asked. My doctor said it should be fine if I brestfeed. You might want to call your doctor and ask. Good luck

You can still breastfeed if you have implants...I would only be cautious if you didnt have saline implants. The implants don't really interfere at all!! ~sara~
