new bra size ?

So normally I'm a 36D and I measured last night and I'm up to 39. Planning on breastfeeding and don't know exactly what size of bra to get. Oh I'm 31 weeks if that makes a difference

Omg wow that's why I'm confused. I asked my mom and she said just get a 39d or 40d but I was wondering if the cup size will change too. When I was looking today they just look so big ! I can't imagine my boobs that big. I'm going to buy a few large size bras now because I can't handle the ones I have. It really hurts my ribs and its just too tight. My little girl doesn't help because she's always right up my ribs

I couldn't wait any longer. I am 30 wks in 2 days but i bought my nursing bras at around 22 wks. Even then i had been going weeks in sports bras bc my boobs were falling out of my old bras. I usually use a 36dd or 38 d depending on my weight slightly fluctuating. I went to motherhood maternity where they measure you (victoria secret and other underwear stores can measure you too) i jumped from my 36dd to a 40F! They still have some room to fill for when my supply comes in. Mind you, I've gained 13 pounds at 30wks but when i bought the bras i had only gained a pound or too.  It's all in the girls.

Wait til ur about 36 weeks and measure, then get a size or two bigger since ur breast will swell when milk comes in. Thats wat i do. Once im 36weeks, if im a 38D , I go for the 40 D. Hope that helped a little. :)
