A mum-of-two who set up a fundraising page for a boob job say she’s been hit with nasty comments from ‘mean mums’.
Jennifer Bodzasiova, 21, says that prior to having children she was happy with her ‘fairly perky’ boobs, but that since going through pregnancy and breastfeeding twice they’re now ‘really saggy’.
Jennifer says it has got to the point where she 'hates' looking in the mirror as her nipples 'point downwards' and jokes they 'say good morning to my belly button' every day.

So, she launched up a fundraiser to help cover the cost of the procedure and spoke about it on TikTok - where she thought she would be met with support, but instead was sent nasty comments from people accusing her of ‘begging’ for money.
Jennifer, from North London, said: "I never thought about getting a boob job at all [before] because my breasts were perfect before having kids.
"I don't remember what bra size I was but I was quite small, maybe an A cup.

"They were fairly perky and I was able to wear dresses or little vest tops without a bra without them drooping.
"After I had my first and breastfed him they sank a little bit, which I wasn't too worried about, but they weren't that bad because I only breastfed him for a short amount of time.
"When I fell pregnant with my second and I breastfed her for about three to four months and then my boobs just went completely saggy.
"I really don't like how they look because I can't wear nice bras - either they don't fit me or I can't wear nice dresses because they look really saggy.

"I hate looking in the mirror and seeing them like this. I have to keep changing my outfits to make sure that my cleavage doesn't look too bad.
"I posted a vlog of me going to my consultation and I explained why I want to have it done.
"I was honestly expecting people to be supportive - a lot of mums follow me so they know exactly how it feels.

"But as soon as I mentioned that I'd set up a GoFundMe to pay for it I got quite a few negative comments.
"People were saying 'we're in a cost of living crisis, lots of people can't afford food and you want them to pay for it'. 'Begging for money' is how they put it.
"I'm not forcing anyone to pay for it, I just said if you can help I would appreciate it. I was expecting the mums at least to understand.

"But when I looked at the profiles the majority of commenters were mums who were quite mean about it because I think they want mommy makeovers as well but they can't afford it."
Jennifer has opted for a £5,000 target, despite the surgery at the clinic where she had the consultation amounting to £7,250.
Jennifer said: "I feel like it would be life-changing. I know it sounds a bit cliche but once I'm healed it'll just be amazing to dress how I want and show it off as well.
"Being a mum, the rest of my body isn't perfect so having that boob job done would mean I would have a nicer appearance.
"I think it's important for mums to be able to feel and look as good as they can.
"I think it's something that people won't understand until you're a mum and struggling with that problem yourself."
