I must disagree here with you, dr Jack, heavy breasts can cause pain, but then
in the back because of the carried weight or in the shoulders from the bra
straps, but not in the breast as caused by breastfeeding. I have large breasts
(F/G) that fed 5 children (then were even larger :-) ) and I know and have seen
lots of largebreasted breastfeeding women, but never saw any correlation between
breastsize and deep breast pain.
But I would like to know if others did see the correlation and/or have any
idea's about what causes the pain should it be related solely to the big size of
breasts.
