Breast feeding has nothing to do with flat breast- Doctor

A medical practitioner, Dr. Bunmi
Ogundimu, says breast feeding
does not make a woman's
breasts to become flat.
Ogundimu, who is also the
Medical Director, Jon Ken Hospital,
Akoka, Lagos, said this in an
interview with the News Agency
of Nigeria.
She explained that rather, breast
feeding makes the breasts fuller
as a result of the fluid sucked by
the baby.
"Breast feeding does not make a
woman's chest flat.
"If anything, the breast becomes
fuller when a woman is
breastfeeding.
"This is because it is going to
contain all the fluid that goes into
the baby's mouth so it will
expand," she said.
According to her, there are many
women who have not breast fed
all their lives and yet have flat
chests.
The medical director said that
breast would go flats with age
when the muscles holding it
drop, adding that the medical
term for it was 'entropy' which
means to shrink.
"I always tell women if you want
full breasts even long after you
stopped breast feeding make
sure you breast feed very well.
"Each time a woman is breast
feeding, the turgidity of the
breast remains," she said.
Ogundimu further explained that
any part of the body that failed to
perform its functions would
shrink at the end of the day.
She added that if the breast was
not used for its function in the
name of fashion, it would also
shrink.
The medical director said that
any husband interested in the
shape of his wife's breasts
should encourage her to breast
feed adequately.
