Please can someone advise me? My boobs haven't changed a bit over my pregnancy & i'm 36 weeks pregnant now. What size nursing bra should I buy as I've been told they'll get much bigger obviously. What did you do? Thanks!

I've gone from a 34B to a 36D and have bought a couple of nursing bras in a 36D with plenty of room on the straps and at the back. Make sure you can do up the bra on the last setting, then you know you can always let it out when you get bigger. The nicest ones I found were in M&S:

to be honest, i would get a supportive sports bra/cropped top type thing til after you've had the baby and then go and get a nursing bra or get someone to bring you one, if your size hasn't changed at all. when i had dd, my boobs didn't change at all whilst pregnant but then i went from a 36b to a 36f in the space of a morning, when my milk came in 2 days after i had her Xmas Shock it's the only place i have stretch marks - very attractive - not!

i remember ringing my mum and asking her to bring me some bras "at least a d" i said "actually, make it an e" and she arrived with an ff; not sure why she brought that after i had asked for an e, but i was REALLY glad she did Xmas Grin

Generally speaking, I was told you would be three cups sizes bigger than normal when nursing. Probably one band size bigger too.

This was true for me - 32b to 34dd.
