was lying in bed last night and said to my husband that my breasts are starting to feel fuller and more tender then he said hmm yeah they are more sticky up rather than going into my armpits...(as I lay there in bed)....
I just hope they dont get too much bigger ------------- http://lilypie.com">

It seems really variable from what others have written. I haven't changed a bra size yet myself, hoping not to change much at all as I am already pretty big! -------------

| Yup, same with me, haven't had to change bra size. Was already a 16-18 DD though, so hoping they don't suddenly get HUGE in the next 8 weeks. |

I changed bra size dramitically in the first couple of months, hence the reason they are covered in lovely unsightly strech marks. 12C to 16D in the first trimester, thankfully they dont seem to have got any bigger then that, it is bad enough that half my tops dont fit my boobs anymore

My boobs got heaps 'fuller' looking with my first baby, I loved it as I'm not particularly well endowed in that department!
Second time round they stayed pretty much the same until the end of my pregnancy. ------------- Mel, Mummy to E: 6, B: 4 and:

Oh I can sympathise!! I went up a size in the first six weeks, so had to go and buy a couple of new bras from the Bendon factory outlet. I suspect that my breasts are going to get huge, I have gone from a 14C up to a 16D at the moment. I feel exactly as you explain MeganGrace. By the way my DH is loving it, although he can only look, no touching or I will scream at him! ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

Mine have grown heaps 12B-12C in the first 8 weeks, then up to 12D by about 4 months, then 12DD and now they're a 14D. I hope they don't keep getting bigger!!  ------------- DS (5yrs) and DD (3yrs) |

I was 12C before pregnancy - went up to a 12D whilst b/feeding, and now back to 12C. Certainly not the perky things they used to be though

Aww this thread gave me a bit of a laugh!. My breast size didn't change during pregnancy, however now they vary depending on how much milk son has drunk. I think I have gone up a size....esp when they're full!. -------------

Hehe DH and I were talking about this the other day. Mine are defintely heavier and when I take my bra off at end of day I notice them even more. Don't think they have really gotten any bigger yet though. ------------- Mum to two beautiful kids

Hehehe seems we all experience this in some form or another...even if we are big or small to start with! I am an 18E normally....so getting pretty worried about what 'letter' I am going to end up as...dont think I have gone up a whole size yet, but they are definatley a LOT fuller and heavier already! The running joke is that I am goign to need a wheelbarrow for them when I am breastfeeding!

I've gone up a bra size, I just went out today and brought some new bras (Farmers had 30% off today). I'm happy with the larger bra size, as I'm very small anyway  ------------- A very lucky mummy to two gorgeous boys: RB 3/10/2008 JB 29/12/2009 |

One thing that happens is that your lung capacity grows when you are pregnant. I used to fit a 10A (would you believe!!! yes I'm talking about when I got married!) but now I'm 12A usually or 12B when bfing. I put the wider back size down to lung expansion. ------------- |

he he he, this thread is making me laugh thinking about if you're worried about big boobs now while being pregnant, just you all wait until your bubs are born and your milk comes in!!!
I didn't change too much during pregnancy (was a 12B - C) I guess they got more 'fuller' than big, but man, once my milk came in I was HUGE!!!!!! I remember I woke in the middle of one night with one boob GIGANTIC and the other "normal" (for b/f). It was so funny I had to wake DH to show him - very painful though!!! Ahhh, the joys of having a baby. It's all worth it ------------- My beautiful 2 girls...nearly 4 and 13 months

Mine have shrunk after giving up breastfeeding! I was a 10B pre-pregnancy then went up to 12C and now I have shrunk down to a 10A that is sooooo depressing. I said to my hubby that after I have my second child and if my boobs go down to an A cup again I am getting a boob job! ------------- Sebastien 2 years old Olivier 3 3/4 years old |

I'm looking forward to having some boobs for a change! DH commented today when I was out in the garden with my singlet on that he liked what he could see, even though he's always said he likes my wee boobs!!!! I just hope they dont shrink too much afterwards! ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">  DD#1 Sept 08 DD#2 Oct 09 |

I have to say that I really had to laugh about your comments about the size of your boobs!!
Before I was pregnant I was a 14HH, so can you imagine what I'm going to be like when I give birth!!! I'm struggling to get bras at the best of times but I can't get any maternity bras!! So think yourselves lucky for having smaller boobs!! |

Lol - I think that puts it into perspective BabyKiwi!
I'm a 14E, and forcing myself into my pre-preg bras despite the fact that my boobs are 5cm bigger. I'm not even sure what size comes next. I'm a bit in denial about moving up! We were at a friends place on Sat nite, and the boys were discussing the virtues of plastic vs natural boobs. I managed to shock them all slightly by adding that my boobs looked like I had implants at the moment.... ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

Ah..and then the B/F stops and you are left with bigger looking "mens ball sacks" hanging of your chest!!!!
Well some of us do for a while...Mine were just quite thin and soft and how depressing...not looking forward to stopping this time around - they might never come back normal! -------------

Yeah, thats the bit I'm not looking forward to, after I've finished breast feeding. I've always been big breasted and I've always loved it until now, getting bras can be a pain, thank god for my mum back in the UK. I send her an order and she sends them out to me!
Don't get me wrong I prefer the natural boobs but in a few years I'll be getting mine done to stop the sagging!!
I don't think guys really mind, boobs are boobs to them! or so my partner says!

with my first pregnancy i went from a b to a c but then they shrunk to an "A" i was mortified. however now back at a "C" but somehow ive got a feeling there not going to stop there.
i always remember when i was 16 and my friends mum who was a "DD" anyway had another baby her breasts got so huge thet there were no maternity bras that would fit and she ende up having this wrap thing that shed have to wear and shed have to get us to pun it up for her. ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">  DD 10.5yrs DS 6yrs DS 11mths 5 little angles watching from above |
