This is for all of us "preggy newbies"
I've done a bit of digging around and have found a few old posts about when to buy a maternity bra. The general concensus has been to buy normal supportive bras (like a sports bra) until the last few weeks, then get a maternity bra properly fitted, as anything you buy too early will not fit once your milk comes in. Hope this helps 
I'm off to rant at Farmers for not stocking "small back, big boob" bras! mwhahaha  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

| If you buy earlier I think the advice the bra ladies give you is to buy two cup sizes up. |
