How big did your BB's get?

[bluegenie2003]

Hey guys,

I'm not preggo yet, but a topic by Mumita made me think of this....How much bigger did your bb's get once you were pregnant or nursing?  I've heard (and witnessed) a bunch of people going from a A or B cup to a C or D cup.  Well, I'm a size C/D (depending on the bra), and that scares me a little bit!  If you have a bigger chest to begin with, does it still tend to grow as much?

[bluegenie2003]

That's really true!  Like I said, I'm a large C/small D, and I've never really considered myself "big" chested.

Isn't it weird that the average breast size used to be a large B to a C and now it seems like the average is a D cup? I just think it is funny that D isn't even considered very big anymore, just normal.

i am normally a dd and went up to and ff when milk was in ouch!!!! and im only a small person! 5ft3 and 60kg i hated it i was a leaking milk machine i had to sleep on about 3 beach towels in my bed each night as the milk would leak everywhere! and not just a few drops we are talking cups!!! needless to say i got mastitis a few times and was in hospital on one occasion due to it turning into a bad infection that had to be drained so so sore! that was the worst part of the whole baby experience for me the whole milk thing! i will try to feed again but im not looking foward to it and if i have any prob i will stop straight away this time and wont be encouraged or perswaded by nurses to continue its really not worth the pain! there are many other ways to be close to and bond with your aby and formulas a r so good these day, however i do realise breast is best and will try again!

I was a 32C went up to a 34DD and am now down to a *tear* 32B.

I thought I'd add.... My BB's went down as my milk went away (I dried up a month after giving birth due to stress) I'm back to a regular Ol D now and DH LOVES it... he can finallyh buy me sexy bra's again!

im in ddd now... i think ill need a 'e' when i get milk

[Super_sally888]

I was a D or DD before (depending on my weight and the bra brand).  Now I am only just squeezing into an F!

Hope to high heaven they don't get any bigger!  Don't think I can get any bigger off the shelf here.  Am trying not to gain any more weight and hope this will help keep these puppies in check.

Oh, my twin sister is a G.  She has to order on-line. She's 4 months post giving birth to her son.  She is overweight, so that does contribute....

i was a 34 c cup and now im a 36 d

[Whitneylauren]

With my first son I went from a 34 D to a 34 E while nursing. Now, with my second, I have gone from a 34 D to a 34 F and I am not due for 11 more weeks! I hate to imagine how big they are going to be once I start nursing again!

[justice6920]

Well before my first I was a 34 B and went up to a 36 C..... and stayed there...... With this pregnancy (just turned 28 weeks) I have already gone up to a 36 D..... Went and bought a bra this weekend and it was a 38 D but it was too small.... So I have to take it back and possibly try a 38 DD

[sweetangel7]

Well, I am only 22w and I started out a small b or very full a...I had bras that were either.  Now I am in my b's and filling them in but not spilling over or anything.  I was really hoping for some major size increase because I have always wanted a bigger bust lol  Hopefully I'll continue to grow lol

[martikadragoon]

Your gonna hate me...  (like say OH NO) because my bb's started out a Small/med D and went to a DDD or an E! (actually bra maternity store said an F...)

[bluegenie2003]

Yikes!!  *Falls over in a dead faint after imagining herself with bbs that size!*

[spade22]

theres an EEE size???

[gingerplaynation]

IWAS 5 FT 6 , 125 LBS AND A SIZE 5/6 W/ A BRA SIZE 34 C. WITH BOTH OF MY GIRLS MY BREASTS WERE EXTREEEEMLY LARGE. MY 2ND PREGNANCY I WAS THE ABOVE MEASUREMENTS AND NO JOKE MY LAST BRA SIZE THAT I BOUGHT WAS A 38 EEE.

[LauraB78]

My bb's are only slightly swollen. I am a 38 B.. The nursing bras I have purchased are either 38C or 40 C.. The nursing bras are stretchy so I am not too worried,, I guess I dont really know yet. I am 35.5 weeks pregnant tho. I know once my milk comes in they will be larger, I just dont know how much larger? I am still fitting into my 38B's and have noticed they are only slightly tighter. I wanted my bb's to get big! =(  I have never had a "nice rack!"  LOL

[GRose]

I really don't mind it. After breastfeeding for 11 months my boobs got a little deflated so now I have nice big perky boobs again, Enjoy em while you got em LOL.

[bluegenie2003]

So, it sounds like I'm in for a load of fun huh?  DH will be happy though!  lol

[GRose]

I started as a 38D with my son and ended up being a 38DDD by the end of my pregnancy. When I was full of milk I was easily a 38F.
I am almost 10 weeks now and am almost up to a DD.

[LittleMissBeatz]

I've still got to go buy new bra's I'm procrastinating because I don't want to know what size I'll be in LOL

[Avanaar]

I've worn 36C since I was in high school (tho I think I should have probably upgraded to a 38C in the past few years ...I didn't learn about proper bra sizing till I got pregnant!!)

After I got pregnant and started 'falling out' of my normal bras, I got a couple sports bras ...I think size 42 (the ones I bought don't have a cup size).  A couple weeks ago, I went and bought a nursing bra ...making sure the cups were a little bigger so I could "grow into them" when my milk comes in ...and I ended up buying a 42DD.  Fun fun!
