It's my last mnth of pregnancy and my breasts have become huge. Under bust is 34 inches while over the breasts is 40 inches. What would my size be now? Do I need to consider anything else wrt bras as I want to breast feed? Any stores recommendations?

Measure in cup sizes 1 inch 1 cup size so the difference is 6 inches. A.B, C, D, E, F. Bingo!

Start with a 34F and see how that feels.
They may well get bigger once your milk comes in so think about FF, G etc.

Or buckets.

Sorry- joking :)

34F Shock

Where would I find bras for these monstrosities.
I am still stuffing myself into my pre-pregnancy 34C bras

Bravissimo is your friend- my mum ( 80s) is 34F or even FF and she has bought her first Bravissimo bras :)

An F isn't that big - although in most brands 6" difference is an E as most have a DD too. You'll find them in department stores like Debenhams, john lewis etc as well as bravissimo, brastop, etc etc. You may well go up in the cup more once you have the baby and your milk comes in so bare this in mind. if you are BF you will want a drop cup bra but I would maybe buy literally 1 to tide you over until your milk comes in as you could well wind up a much bigger size whilst feeding.

There are some underwired nursing bras which might help if you feel they are very large

I find Miss Mary Of Sweden bras the comfortablest in the world! They look like something Isambard Kingdom Brunel may have designed but sooooo comfy!
