Hey ladies, I am 18 weeks tomorrow with my first. I had 36D breasts prior to my pregnancy, and my bra size hasn't changed. I'm not complaining at all, however; I'm surprised my breasts haven't gotten larger requiring an up-size. Has anybody else experienced this and/or know anything about it? Thanks for reading.
IMO, Give it time!!! You're still pretty early in the process. Also, don't purchase a nursing bra until after you deliver. I bought one and it never fit properly after my milk came in. Nordstroms MOA is the only place I could find that carried any of the larger cups in-stock especially for nursing bras..
I went from a 40C+/D to a 40E/F and haven't gone back down...
42DD before getting pregnant, and a 42H right now (I didn't even know they made an "H" cup size).
I have only gained 10 lbs and got fitted for those new bras when I hadn't gained any weight at all, so I'm not sure what the deal is... I'd been fitted for the 42DD about 3 weeks before getting pregnant so I don't think I was wearing the wrong size!
I'm a 34G and was a 32F pre pregnancy. Definitely get measured at Nordstrom at MOA before buying nursing bras. They are great there for sizing bustier ladies.
