Will my boobs just keep getting bigger?

I am 7 weeks pregnant and this is my first time. I am very fortunate to be feeling really except for sore boobs that are growing a rate of knots. I have gone from a 32DD to 32G already. I can not afford to keep buying new bras but want to be comfortable! Is there an initial "growth spurt" or will they keep going throughout the pregnancy? By the way, I can highly recommend the staff in Bravissimo if you are "larger than average". They have a great range from everyday to glamorous and an expert fitting service.

I have the same problem - last pregnancy I went up to a 34G before my milk had even come in and they stayed a 32G even after i stopped feeding and never went back again!

I am now pregnant again and well out of a 34G (more like a HH) so I dread to think how big they will get. The growth has slowed down now (I'm 26 weeks) so here's hoping that's it 'til bubba's born.

I would recommend a site called brastop - they are always doing offers on big bras (D-K cup) and sometimes they only cost £5-10 so I buy a few and then wear them 'til they wear out!
If you stay a G then it's worth checking out a la senza factory outlet if there's one near you - I got a couple of G bras there for a fiver each.

Sorry it's so long! Good luck with your pregnancy!

Mine grew most in the first 8 weeks and have hardly got any bigger since (now 34 weeks). I went from 38C to 38EE/F in 8 weeks and am now 38FF.

I got fitted at Bravissimo at about 10 weeks and the soft bras I got then are still okay as they fitted me with a bit of growing room to start with, thankfully.

Thanks for the tips and reassurance that things should slow down a bit, not that my husband minds!Wink

I went up from 34E to 34G by about week 10. Got fitted in bravissimo. The underwired bras I got then still fit me great now at 34 weeks but with bra extenders (elasticated extra hooks attachment) at the back. My boobs haven't got bigger but my ribs have spread and back size has increased. The soft bra didn't stay so comfy. I ended up buying some soft 38G in M&S just because they were really cheap in the sale. They are a bit big, but comfy enough to sleep in. I am still feeling worried about what will happen when my milk comes in though...
