Topic: How big did your boobs get? Posted: 30 July 2010 at 11:45am |
For those of you who have had babies before how many cup sizes did you go up once your milk came in? I am having a horrible panic that I wont be able to find any bras.

I was a 10DD before pregnancy, went to about an E during pregnancy, then when my milk came in for a couple of days my breasts were so incredibly massive that there was no way they were going to squash into any bra so wore bf singlets, then after a week or so then went back to (squashing) into an e cup. but bf bras are soft cups so it wasn't uncomfortable.
They stayed that size til I stopped bf-ing, then they went to a C cup. Now I am pregnant again we are back up to E!

lol..I was a DD before getting pregnant and got stuck (measured at shop) in an f size when I was about 5 months which was too big so got some more in size E...however now my F size is the bestest! Right after birth I don't think I wore any bra as too uncomfy...

I am a size F now which is around my normal size so I am having a stress, I have noticed my boobs getting bigger but they still seem to fit in the soft cup bra I bough so havent stressed.

I was a 10D but had to wear 12D or larger once my milk came in. I don't know what the exact measurement was as I just wore maternity singlets.

I was a B cup before and during pregnancy, then went to C when my milk came in (engorged) and once my milk settled down I returned to a B.

I was 12B before Dan, 14D when he was born, 16F when my milk came in and settled back to 14DD. After I stopped BF, I went to a 14C (took a year or so).

Oh, and i recommend BF singlets for those first few days. The days my milk was coming in, I ended up getting some real crap cheapies from Farmers which did the job while everything was painful and then it settled down so I switchedback to my BF singlets.

I was a 12B before milk came in. Have no idea what they got to when the milk came in, but that was really shortlived anyway and they're back to a 12B again. I rate BF singlets - so comfy. Not a tremendous amount of support though, but for me being small busted it's not really an issue.

I was a 16D pre pg and a 16F when my milk came in and then settled back to a 16E... which I still am now, though they are getting a little on the tight side (I seem to be getting a monoboob).
Really need to be refitted actually but will try and hold another 5-6 weeks...
