Let's talk boobs....

[starrje]

holy crap, when will they stop growing????? I was a 34 C when I got pg, and I just bought a 38DD and they're popping out, exactly what size is after that??????? ACK! Dh is excited, but they're a bit of a pain in the arse....

[Samantha333]

Of course dh is excited hahaha! I have big boobs to start with so mine get HUGE! it is awfully annoying huh! They don't stop growing i swear and they prob. won't go back to normal mine stayed a little bigger after the girls haha...lucky dhs booo for us

[scotty620]

haha i definitely don't have that problem

[momiofoz]

with my dd i went from a 34 a to a 36 c. my ds i went from a 34c to a 38 d. this time im starting out at a 36 c and im already in a 38 d and im needing to move up a size! cant wait to see what they look like in my swim suit this summer!

[Three4MeNHim]

F is after that one. And I would know because I'm a G! These boobs better not get any bigger or I'm going to need cranes to hold them up!

[MesaL]

I know that before pregnancy I was a 36GG (yes, they go up that high)...I have no clue what I am now.
I've been in the biggest sports bras I could find since I went through the whole 'swelling, aching, tenderness' thing. That or I just toss on a heavy sweater and go bra-less.

[deannaaz]

I saw an ad the other day that said nursing bra sizes up to L cup size...I didn't know that existed!!! I'm in a 38 H right now...I hope they quit growing soon!!!!

[SuperGrover]

I have an excessively large chest too - not even sure what size anymore. I must ask where do you ladies in the G's and H's find these sizes? I look at my local Lane Bryant and I end up stuffing myself into 40DDD's and they often still don't do it. Right now, I'm wearing two bras at the same time just to do the trick comfortably. I put on one cotton one first that covers it all but offers no support and then I put on an underwire minimizer that supports the girls. I hate it and I hope I can find a nursing bra that fits and that these don't get bigger after I have this baby. (I'm seriously considering getting myself a reduction after I'm done having kids.)

[MesaL]

I have been getting my bras offline for years, SuperGrover, or from a local store called 'The Bust Stop'.

Only problem is I can rarely afford more than one bra at a time, since they tend to be seventy dollars at a pop!

[jencalsi]

Mine are huge! I was a 42D to begin with. My DH is loving it.

[Shee_Na]

I started at a 36DD to begin with not sure what I am now.

[Niccole2]

I had lost about 20 pounds before I got pregnant so my boobs had finally gotten to a size that was proportionate to my body. Yeah, thats gone now. They are huge. Thankfully I still had some of my old 38DD bras and thats what I'm wearing now.

I bought a swim suit last night for my trip next week. I had go up 3 sizes to get something that would cover my boobs and belly (tankini). I'm just not large enough for a maternity bathing suit yet. Of course, I havent seen such a thing but I'm sure they exist!

Edit: Ok so I went and looked at some maternity swim suits online and almost none of them have skirts on the bottom. HELLO! I have thunder thighs and would never dream of not having something to cover all that cellulite!

[obrienkt]

LOL - MY GIRLS ARE GINORMOUS!!!!!!

Which is fabulous, cuz honeybuns is definitely a boob man :) He's in heaven!

But, I'm wondering too - when does the madness stop??? I started 38D, slowly but surely growing out of the DD......where do I buy after that?

[Erika1005]

Ok, all you show-offs!!! I wish I had your problem. I started at a 34B and I am bigger but not more than a small C!

[RedRoses]

I started as 36B but am not at a very healthy 36C but I think if I buy more bras soon I will try out a 38C. Yikes!!! They seemed to have slowed down or stopped their growth altogether now.

Do they get bigger when baby is born? Or just stay this big? Do they shrink again?

[bethxyz]

Wow!! My fellow preggos have some big 'ol boobies ;)

I started as a 34 A (yes a happy little A cup) and am now up to 36 B and really needed something bigger.

Personally I hope my boobs shrink back down when all is said and done!!

[jenepicam]

I'm still comfortably fitting in 38B. I do not feel my Boobs will get much bigger. I just do not know. :-? They still get tender sometimes.

[eislem]

DH swears mine are still growing, I think maybe a little bit... I just can't get over how sensitive they are. Even justthe air on them when I'm changing hurts!

[Crazygirl31701]

I am outgrowing the 38 E...Im afraid to move up any bigger!

[Jenn82]

I am glad to hear that others have this same problem! It seems like right now they are the only thing getting bigger. I started as a 34C and now not even half-way through I am 36D. I don't even want to know what nursing will bring. My only hope is that they will go back to normal after nursing...anyone? Do they??!!

[cuteartsygurl]

I too was wondering...do they return to their original size?

I started out a 34A. I have been in a B cup for months now. Tomorrow while shopping I plan on trying on a C because I have been feeling really, REALLY squished lately. Wow. I never dreamed I would see this size BBs on me! Actually I do hope they will mostly go down after nursing. Yikes.

I joke that I really thought DH was in love until he met the new twins in town. hehe

[deannaaz]

I have a friend who lost a cup size after nursing each of her children...grew during pregnancy and then the nursed her dry. I'm hoping I'm like that - might avoid a reduction surgery later in life!!!!

Of course, I've also heard some people say that they never quite made it back to the original size...might depend on how long and how much your nurse...I don't know.

[morel_baby]

Mine are not too bad, I still fit into my biggest pre pregnancy bra. It is tight, but not uncomfortable. I'm about a 36B, although I could probably fit into a C right now. I don't mind the size though, I hope that they don't get too big!

[starrje]

With my other two I got to a 36D, never a DD like this one, but after both it went back down to a 34C or so, now they didn't exactly LOOK the same, haha, but they did go back to their normal bra size at least...

[~Leasha~]

You know it's weird because with either of my other pregnancies or this one I never had sore boobs or growing boobs or anything at all. I haven't got this one yet either, the only time my boobs grow is after the baby is born and I guess they swell because the milk comes in, then after they dry up they go back to normal.

If I remember correctly that pain is horrible to experience.

[annem39]

Yes the girls are out of control. I don't know when they stop. I started at a 32 B and now I'm pushing a 36 C/D depending on the maker. Funny thing is my husband always told me he was a leg man and breast size didn't matter. He's a liar. Such a liar.

[ravonnie]

I started at a regular ol' tiny 34B now I am creeping into a 38DD. I have ALWAYS wanted big boobs - but man, you can keep these things! I want my tiny chest back. How uncomfortable - and expensive. My bras are 40 dollars each and I can't keep buying new ones each month, DH likes them but freaks out at the fact that they have grown so big so fast!

[YogaMama]

I started out a small 32B/34A (depending on the brand), and am now up to a comfortable, "I-can-breathe-again" 34 C. I never thought I would see the day when I would get to a C cup! I am thrilled!!! I haven't heard DH complain, either, lol.

[AmayaNSugar]

I started out at a 38C and now I'm a 40D. I'm so excited because I was about to get my breasts enhanced to a DD. Hopefully they stay this size or get bigger!

[Crazygirl31701]

I wish after having the kids they went back down to my pre pregnancy size....it seems like with each one they stay a size bigger. I started out at a 38d this time and I dont want to be any bigger than that when I am through. Hopefully I lose some because they just keep expanding!

[sometime]

I am also in a C cup, never in my whole life have I even worn a C. Wow and I think they just grew some more this week. Can't wait to see what they will look like in a few months. DH is in heaven. :D
