Women did this to help stop the flow of breast milk if they were going back to work after the birth of a baby etc...

Its an old practice ...

New mothers would bind their beeasts if they did not plan to breastfeed, back when I was born.

Indeed. There was an episode of the TV show ER that showed them preparing to bind a patient's breasts after she had a stillborn baby.
