Pregnant with dc2 and they are so painful and hard. Underwired bras hurting already. Is there any point in buying bras at this stage? Did this happen to anyone else?I'm sure I was about 12/16 weeks with dc1 before they started growing.

I'm only 6 weeks and I bought new bras last week ... up from 34D to 36DD. It's crazy!

I went from a 28c to a 28e by week 7. At week 12 im now a 30dd. This is my first and the only bras I feel comfy in are the sports type ones. I cant remember the last time I wore a normal bra.

Mine started growing at week 3 during both pregnancies. Completely normal :-)

I didn't want to jinx anything by buying any maternity clothes before a scan. But I was so uncomfortable I had to get new bras at about 10 weeks. I didn't want to spend too much, so I got plain white soft cotton bras from amazon. They were five quid each. I went up 2 cup sizes so 34d to 34e. They're not a bad shape either.

I had to buy new bras at 8 weeks id gone up 2 cup sizes

I had to move up bra sizes with both pregnancies early on. With the first one I started at 34 B/C and finished with at 36 FF! They were only just about shrunk to their original size three years later (bf through out though so I imagine that kept them going!) when I got pregnant again and up we go.

I know some people are really keen on large breasts, but I find them really annoying and it means I can't wear any of my normal clothes for ages.

I'm envious. I'm only a 34A usually and this was what I was most excited about! 23 weeks on and not grown at all! They have becaome fuller and rounder but not bigger. Deeply disappointed.

Yep, 30DD to 30F by week 8. Thankfully it seems to have stopped now - hopefully they won't grow much more, although I can tell I'll need to buy some 32 bras soon as my 30s seem a lot tighter around the ribcage!

This is the one bit of pregnancy I'm really not looking forward to. I'm a 32G. 4+4 and they're already feeling like they're growing.

I feel quite sad over it actually as I can imagine I'm going to look bloody awful as my bump grows. I have a feeling all maternity clothes are going to look rubbish and I'm going to feel like a frump.

Yes I know it's a stupid, shallow thing to be upset about but I'm blaming the hormones Wink

Oh and the selection of maternity bras once you get past an E cup? Dreadful Angry

I'm 8+5 and think I've gone up a cup size or so (usually 34DD). Was thinking about getting a couple of new bras but don't want to spend a fortune if they're going to grow any more, any thoughts?

The bravado body silk nursing bra range is great because it's very elastic and is meant to cover a wide range of sizes. Not the most flattering by any means but really comfy. I've been wearing mine since about 12 weeks (now 19) and am hoping it will last me for the rest of the pregnancy and beyond without having to keep buying new bras as I change size.

omama · 07/04/2014 20:58

I'm 5+3 & mine are also growing!

chillichicken have you tried Hot Milk? They go up to an H cup & have some really nice bras. I got one during my last pregnancy & wore it most of the time, until my milk came in & I shot up another 2 cup sizes!
I'll def be buying more this time around.
