A mother has revealed she had a boob job to give her the “confidence” to breastfeed her baby. Alice Coombe said she hated her small 32A bust more than ever after breastfeeding her first son, Hector Jr, three years ago. The 24-year-old knew she wanted more children, but worried that without getting bigger boobs she would not have the confidence to breastfeed and bond with them.
Before her second child Elizabeth was born, she decided to put an end to her misery by getting breast augmentation in 2016. After doing much research and looking at different surgeons from places like breast augmentation Colorado to breast augmentation in Canada, she finally sound a surgeon right for her.
The mum-of-two, who lives in Plymouth, Devon, said she was thrilled with the results after surgery took her from a 32A to a 34DD.
She asked for her implants to be put underneath the milk glands so it didn’t affect breastfeeding, and had “no complications” feeding Elizabeth.

While Alice claims her breast augmentation with implants have helped boost her confidence, she would never have gone ahead with the surgery had it meant she would be unable to breastfeed.
“Breastfeeding was very important for me,” she said. “I feel it’s a bonding process with your baby and I feel you’re giving them the best nutrients. It’s such a natural thing to do and for them it’s so comforting too.
“I hated my boobs after breastfeeding the first time. I always had little boobs. “To me it was the best thing I ever did.”
Alice breastfed both of her children, Hector, three, and Elizabeth, seven months, until they were five months old.
Alice, a former PR worker, spent the last 10 years in Tenerife, where she met fiancé Hector and had her two children.
The surgery, which she had done in Spain, cost her £3,800.
She added: “Hector was very encouraging – it’s lovely to have that kind of support.
“My whole family are supportive.”
