Competition - Areola growth - how big did yours get in pregnancy- before and after required.

[Oblomov]

Just wondering amazed at the growth of mine - And I am only in week 8. Dh commented on them, being like saucers.
How big is big ?
Which Mumsnetter had the biggest ?
Do tell, just for a giggle.

pub ashtrays here

HUGE. Like, centimetres across. HUGE!

Boyslikedogs, really ?
God !!
Oh, I am only in the minor leagues then

My norks are enormous, too

Mine have barely changed at all (norks or areolae). Except for the weird lumpy bits around the nipples, they're bloody massive

I would say bout rich tea biscuit size (pregnant)...I measure by food

PMSL!!!!

no d.d kids for me

I'm with boyslikedogs. Mine are currently each the size of a saucer. And as boobs are of the floppy variety the edge of my nips can't actually be seen as they disappear under the bit of boob that lies against my bump, iyswim. DH thinks they are hilarious and can't see how they could have physically grown to this size . Like they're painted on or something you fool dh.

If they are meant to be like targets for newborn babies then I don't think mine (27 wks pg at the mo) is going to have problems finding them.

lorks mine were like goosebumps before and now saucers they are a marvel to behold I find the difference fascinating as I have always had small ones...

tee he he, this is an amusing thread. my partner called mine my "big macs" coz they were massive and looked about the size of a burger... I only have little boobs as well. Just something else to giggle about i spose that was last time around... this time they havnt got so big and my boobs dont seem to have got any bigger either which is slightly dissapointing!

cyteen-I think those lumpy bits are 'Montgomery's tubercles' or something like that. I worked with a Dr. Montgomery when up duff last time and after I read a pg book naming those bits I went red everytime I talked to him, as I was alwyas thinking 'NIPPLES!'. He was a very nice old chap, his area was nothing to do with norks but it just stuck in my head, and now you've reminded me of him ( he's retired now, thank goodness).
I'm also impressed noone has actually got a tapem easure out, well noone's told us about it....).

hi
i found that my (.)(.)'s went bigger during preg and my areola went darker but my word if i expected that would be the end of it i was wrong...when i was BF my nipples went so big they resembled makka pakkas bum!! ridiculously large like i had dorrstoppers in my bra!! all the livelong day spreading the thrills around the immediate public male population...like a leaking fembot...not a good look
