Will my boobs shrink this time around?

I was a size 10, 12 on top due to D size boobs before having DS. They went up to a DD in pregnancy then never shrank as I assumed they would after.

This time I am now up to an E and still going. I went back to a size 10/12 eventually after DS, just had massive boobs.

Are they likely to shrink this time or am I going to be some wierdo size 10/12 (only a 12 because of the boobs) with a huge saggy chest?

Oh I had the opp problem and was joining you to moan, I went from C to B cup after BF last time, I'm worried I might end up and A after this one. Why don't you send some of your bustiness my way!

I was a 34c size 10 pre dd went up to a 34d and stayed that way even after bf. went to a 34dd with ds and again stayed that way even after bf. Now pg 22 weeks and a 34 e and growing so in same boat. I also managed to get back to a size 10 but 12 on top. Guessing i wont shrink and will also look like I may topple over lol

Sorry Scat [hwink], a cup size coming your way. [hgrin]

So it is possible that I won't shrink this time either! I have enough trouble trying to find nice tops and dresses that fit. I'll never be able to shop in Jane Norman again! They don't exactly cater for the larger chested.

You should count yourself lucky! I have never had much in the way of boobs but always been a bit on the chubby side, size 14 bottom, size 12 top. I'd much rather be top heavy than bottom heavy!

I'm with you RoxieP!!

My boobs did not get bigger with DC1 or DC2! Just a bit fuller (and perkier)! Sadly even that didn't last!!

I wish my bottom would shrink instead! [hangry]

I was a size 8/10 with a 28FF chest pre pregnancy... God knows what I am now, I'm certainly not in a well fitting bra at the moment, but I'd hazard a guess at a 30/32 G.

Then there'll be the milk to add a cup size or two...

Please god stop spreading these stories of not going back down boob sizes afterwards!!

Bloody hell Island!!

I don't actually mind my figure, just a shame they are quite saggy now but thats a given once you have children I suppose.

Its just a bloody pain getting nice tops and dresses to fit. Especially when I love stuff that has an empire line and the line is up with my nipples. Grin Not a great look.

Try shopping at Bravissimo - clothes cut for bigger boobs, not for being bigger all over!

I'm a bit nervous about my boobs not getting much smaller afterwards too - have gone from 38C to 38FF and I'm only 33 weeks.
