Question for my more um "blessed" women

I was a 36D prior to getting pregnant...now I feel like they grow half a cup size every week. I swear they're bigger than my head.

Should I buy stock in Victoria Secret? Will I have to buy new bras every week? I feel like they're going to pop by the time I give birth.

Question for my more um

In the beginning, I feel like they felt bigger and they hurt but that stopped after a couple of weeks. I'm 25w tomorrow and still the same 44DD that I was then. So I think it really just depends.

Re: Question for my more um "blessed" women

I'm right there with you. I was a 36C but my bras quit on me a few weeks ago. I am now wearing nursing tanks and a nursing bra from Dc#1. I'm not going to buy any bras right now as I will be living in nursing tanks once dd comes. I will probably buy some nursing bras, but will wait until dd is here.

Re: Question for my more um "blessed" women

i had to stop shopping at victorias secret - you do outgrow bras pretty quick i found it a waste of money

i got a few nursing bras in a larger cup and band size. that held me over for a bit and then i got bigger, so i got a bra extender (thankfully the cup still fit) and that allowed me to wear the same bras through most of my pregnancy. by the end (maybe around 35 weeks) underwire was SO uncomfortable i switched to a bravado nursing bra and that lasted me the rest of my pregnancy and the first few months of nursing dd

def dont go spending a ton of money on bras at this point - youll end up outgrowing them

I went from almost a 38 c to a dd/f. They better not grow anymore. I bought new bras at the Maidenform outlet. Saved so much money.

Question for my more um

Well they starred getting bigger prior to getting pregnant due to the crapload of infertility medication I was taking and then BAM! So I had to switch already. Hopefully these will hold for awhile I am not even 6w pregnant with twins.

I arm also peeing every 45 minutes.

Re: Question for my more um "blessed" women

I'm probably more average, but wanted to say my boobs grew so much after I had the baby. It was crazy!! I went from a 36 C to a 38 DD. I was BF. Don't go buying a lot of nursing bras or maternity bras right now. You never know what your going to get after baby comes. Probably not what you want to hear.

While pregnant I didn't grow too much, maybe just a cup size if that. They shouldn't go to crazy from here for you while pregnant.

Question for my more um

I'm scared bc everyone says it's going to get worse after the baby. I was normally 34DD, but I am curvy.. I also wear a size 10-12 pant so my chest never looked huge- but now 4 months in.. I went up to a DDD and then when those got tight I started buying XXL in sports bras, I normally would get a medium.
Everyone keeps telling me how "huge" my boobs are getting.

Cheap target bras. Do not spend money on them. I was not big to begin with and went up to a D. Two years later I only went back to a C not my original small B.

Question for my more um

I would recommend going to a good bra store to purchase bras. A trained bra fitter can help you to buy a bra that provides proper support that has a little room in the cup that you can grow into. So far I went from a 32DD to a 34H and I am 25 weeks tomorrow. I bought my second set of bras yesterday. I only bought two bras-they were $$$ but hopefully they will last a couple of months. I found my chest initially got bigger but slowed down around 12 weeks and then from 21 to 25 weeks I noticed a change.

I bought mine at lane bryant and they were buy one get one free. I started at a 38DDD and grew to a 38G. They were the only ones that stock it that big that are not expensive.

Re: Question for my more um "blessed" women

I was a 32G before I was pregnant. I got measured at 12 weeks and bought a 36G. I just splurged and bought two nice ones from Georgettes. Since then, I have just had to add a back extender. I am getting close to needing new bras, but I am going to try and hold out another few weeks and just get nursing bras at that point to try and save some $$. Target and other cheap bras didn't have the support (or even the sizes) I needed.

I went from a 34d to popping out of 36 h/I. I highly recommend bravado brand. You can get them on targets website. Don't buy a lot bc you're going to be growing constantly. I also love sleep bras. My breasts hurt so badly without support.
