What size nursing bra to get?

I can't find any of my nursing bras from DD, so I have to start from scratch.

I'm normally a 34A, but went up to a 34B during this pregnancy. From what I've read, you should go up a full cup size for the nursing bra. But is that a full cup size from my current size or from my usual size?

I fear that if I go up to a 34C, a few weeks after my milk comes in, I'll probably be back to a B, right? Or should I buy one 34C and one 34B?

    wait till your milk comes in.  I tried buying before and followed the advice of the sales girl and still needed to go bigger after my milk came in.

    This. I was a 34 C pre pg, 36 D during pregnancy, and my boobs ballooned after my milk came in (I've stretched out a couple of 36DD bras but haven't gone to get re-measured).

    wait until your milk comes in and get measured.

    however for me- i went up a cup size while pregnant, up a cup size after milk came in.
