Anyone else unhappy with their bigger boobs?

I'm 13+3 and since getting pregnant have gone up two cup sizes - I'm now an E and am not happy :(

I had to buy some new bras yesterday as I couln't force myself into the old ones. I couldn't find any bras that were pretty or feminine, with thin straps or delicate material. The bras I had to buy were plain with big wide straps and thick cups.

Ok, so I feel much better supported now, I'm more comfortable and I have a nice shape with my clothes on. But I so do not look sexy! If my hooters keep growing like this I'm going to end up spending a fortune on bras.

Sulk over! Going to make some Brew. Anyone else in the big boobie boat and feel like they're sinking?!?

I've been for a fitting at bravissimo along with DS at 4mo and DS woke up before and was hungry so they were very happy to delay (booked) fitting and let me feed him first - shown to a nice spacious fitting room and offered a drink of water. They then coped magnificently with resultant lopsided fitting Grin

I think I've been unlucky with Bravissimo - both times I've been since I've been pregnant they've not had the bras that I've wanted in the size they recommended and had a 3-4 week lead time for ordering them in (by which time of course I would be an entirely different size). I was very disappointed by that.

On the supportive soft cup bra front, I am very pleased with my new bras from Debenhams which are moulded and therefore seem to be better at hoicking boobs up into the right shape / position than other soft cup bras (where I feel decidedly matronly). It's also, a LOT more attractive than a lot of the other soft cup ones AND doesn't come up too high and thus show over the top of tops etc. Very highly recommended!
Here is the bra I'm talking about

Hello again ladies,

I wasn't expecting so many replies - I hardly ever post on the boards, I tend to just lurk in the back ground :)

I know bigger boobs are part of this being preggers malarky, its just been nice to hear everyones take on it, and especially all the shopping recommendations.

C&C xoxo
