I'm 25+3 now and as yet haven't noticed a difference?

Is it too early? They are quite large anyway and normally a little sore - so haven't noticed much difference....

Aren't you the VERY lucky one, I've gone up from a 36D to 38DD and now these bras are becoming a squeeze, so I will have to go and get measured again. Plus my boobs have been so sore all the way through (I'm now 30 weeks). Take it as a blessing

Mine didn't get bigger during pregnancy but they have shrunk to nothing afterwards

I was 32DD pre babies but after 2 kids I'm luckl to fill a B cup

Echoing Jojay. I used to be a 34DD now even though I'm 39 +5, I'm nowhere near that.

Yes take it as a blessing. My jumped up overnight and straight away from 12C to 12D. I HATE them and am hoping they will go down after breastfeeding....

mine seem to have shrunk a cup size before the breastfeeding even starts...mind you they were 34G so could do with a bit of shrinkage

Is it true that they will shrink a bit with breastfeeding?

I was 36D and I'm still pretty much the same size now at 29+3, tho just for comfort I'm wearing a 38D maternity bra. Wondering if there's going to be an increase in size when I start breastfeeding or not...strange!!

I'm 32 wks now, still no sign of increase in size of boobies (am 36C)- gutted! Thought this was meant to be one of the bonuses of being preggers- instead I have some very strange looking nipples- joyful!

I had mine remeasured when i got pg, as I was told not to wear underwired bras. I had been happily wearing 36F and was told I was a 38E.

Am now 19 weeks and no change in size since.

Mine.

I was 34E. I was told to buy a 38C maternity bra. The shame The shame. But basically it just means by ribcage is expanding but boob size staying the same.

In fct while asking for my size bra is embarassing I think they are an OK size still

Mine never changed size at all in any of my three pgcies. They became very tender, and were definitely a no-go zone for dh, but they did not change size. Not even when my milk came in.

They would sneak up on me and increase by 2 or 3 cupsizes by the time the baby was 1 or 2 mnths old. After I had bought loads of breastfeeding bras.

OTOH they never deflated completely either, so I am now 38E (was 38C pre-dc), which I love!
