They broke up not too long ago. Both single parents now. Seems like a fake relationship because of the election. Course everyone saw this coming so I guess it is no surprise.

Well Kim is right that when breasts swell with milk it is very painful. Engorgement is no fun. I had my first and only child when I was 19 – 23 now – and my milk production was tremendous. My busy work schedule didn’t give me enough time to pump my breasts and the swelling at night was very very painful. My daughter drank and drank but the milk kept coming.

@Kim said: “but it should not be used to scare young women, who might think their breasts are going to look like Bristols’ during their pregnancy.”

And whats wrong if they did? Bristols boobs looked great. Being big and round is a good thing. I don’t think girls were scared by how she looked. Girls should be scared by having a KID at that age. Thats the real problem. Lots of responsibility. Not every American family has millionaire parents like Bristol.

Listen, those were not pregnant breasts, she was clearly a nursing mother who was being stopped from feeding her child! When you do that, the breasts swell with milk and it is very painful. Palin had to take her on the road to feed the kid that wasn’t hers, and then when it became apparent that she was the mom, they decided to stop her, and voila! Giant boobs practically in her face, trying to cover up the fact that Sarah wasn’t feeding anybody with those tiny breasts. Her schedule was never remarked upon, or cramped, why? because she was not the feeding mom.

Such a shame that this charade was carried out in clear view and no one who has breast fed, was allowed to comment on what was right out in front of our eyes. Like the emperors new clothes—politics is an ugly business, but it should not be used to scare young women, who might think their breasts are going to look like Bristols’ during their pregnancy. Only if they were huge sized young women to begin with would anyone experience that kind of size jump.

Even during your breast feeding you only look like that, IF you are swollen and are not keeping to a feeding schedule or are binding off your breassts in an attempt to shut down your mammary glands rather suddenly. I had that experience, when my father in law had cancer and my dghter was 8 months old, and I needed to be able to go to the hospital more. Other than that, even with DDD cups I never looked like Bristol, and it’s a disservice to let new moms or those expecting to beleive that was merely pregnancy related.

I have heard that many physicians believe the breasts are not fully mature until a woman has given birth and produced milk but I don’t know if this is true with teenage girls. Breast changes are one of the earliest signs of pregnancy – by the fifth or sixth month of pregnancy, the breasts are fully capable of producing milk.

I never understood why the areolas darken in color. To stand out more against pale skin to help guide the baby to the milk source?

One thing she went through that I did was that the organs will further compress and be pushed up against her diaphragm as her child grows. In some women this may cause an increase in heartburn or shortness of breath. This is one of the reasons pregnant women need to sit down so often.
