Hi all I've spent a small fortune on bras during my pregnancy...starting of as a 34f, the 36g bra im sporting now at 38 weeks is too small and I need a new one. Question is..how big to go? I think 38h might be a good fit for now, but will my boobs get bigger once milk comes in?
Its so hard finding good bras for bigger boobs let alone nursing bras for breasts that are on the cusp of expanding again!

Any advise? I really hate how much money I've had to spend over the various growth spurts.over the last 9 months and would be really good to know how much bigger peoples already large breasts/rib cage got in the last few weeks and then again once milk comes in.

Also if you have any recommendations to buy that would be brilliant. Thank you!

Could you buy an extender rather than buying a new bra? That's what I did towards the end of my pregnancy.

I could but I think I probably need a nursing bra rather than just a normal underwire...
Are nursing bras essential or can you sort of just get a boob out from a normal bra? Sorry I.m pretty clueless Grin

Molke! No wires, and they cover a few sizes so you shouldn’t need to keep splashing out. They are expensive but so worth it. I’m a 34K at 20 weeks pregnant (32H pre pregnancy), and wear a medium mega but don’t think I’ll need to size up much more as they are stretchy but so supportive.

You should try a flexible size bra, e.g. molke, sugar candy by Cake and bravado. They all get good reviews for bigger busted ladies.

I've tried bravado and the cake one. Very similar design. I'd say the bravado one is a bit nicer.
