Question 1

after my pregnancy will my breasts and butt get bigger and then start to sag?

Depends on You: How your body reshapes after a pregnancy depends on how much weight gain you have during your pregnancy. It also depends on your activity level during and after pregnancy. If you exercise and eat a balanced meal with less calories per day, you should have no problem in getting back to your pre pregnancy shape. Good Luck
