Breast Feeding

I breastfeed with my daughter and it was ohkay she didnt latch on with me so I had to pump and put in bottle then give it to her.. However.... My boobs shrunk after I breastfeed!!! Like literally... Before prenancy I was a C cup and after pregnacny and breastfeeding my boobies went to a small B :(
I'm 32W with baby #2 I really want to breastfeed him but I don't want my boobs to get smaller lol. Did anyone have the same issue or will they maybe get bigger and back to a C cup like I was before my first pregnancy?
Any answers or advice would help

Ahh.  This is the dilemma with nursing.  The chickens are never the same.  I have heard that if you do some light weight training during the period of time that you are nursing baby to work the pec muscles that you will lesson the chance of the breakdown of breast tissue that occurs.  I'd try that.  But overall, it's a great thing.  And heck, I gained some weight as the years went on and that added back any breast that I lost after concluding nursing.  (the upside of weight gain, he he).  good luck
