Let's talk boobs.

KLResq · May 2010

I'm normally a B cup. For years, friends and family have mentioned how huge their boobs got while PG. Um...when can I expect that to happen?

Mine are sore and feel a tad bit "fuller," but I certainly do not think they are any bigger. Does this happen later? Ever?

Also, does anyone know why breast tenderness comes and goes? If it's tied to horomones, and our HCG levels are continually increasing and Progesterone should be relatively static, shouldn't the tenderness be a constant? My tenderness really varies from one day to another (sometimes being absent for a day entirely), but it always seems worse at night. Just curious.

I have read that your boobs will be growing the whole 9 months.

as far as your hormone levels, they even out at 8wks so your boobs will probably start to feel a little better after that.

hope you feel better

When I was pregnant with DD my boobs grew the whole time, but it was slow nothing to noticable. Then after she was born. BAMM... There they were, I breastfeed for 9 months and they are still huge.

I'm having the exact same symptoms boob-wise. Almost no soreness in the mornings, quite painful at night. I don't really know why, but I am happy to hear you are having similar symptoms. Mine have definitely grown, maybe 1/2 a cup size but are not huge yet. I am also pretty small to begin with, so might be more noticeable. I think they really explode after the birth when your milk comes in.

This time around my boobs grew very quickly. The last 2 wks my DH has been drooling over them. LOL they do keep getting bigger gradually. I'm a A/B cup and I'm just about at the max for a B cup now. By the time the baby comes I might be about a C. After the baby you get to enjoy "engorgement" and start looking like a porn star!!!

EEEK!! Mine have already reached a D cup - up from a B 8 weeks ago. Which is exciting, if they hold it right here for a while. I don't need to be searching for EEE bras...

I was kind of upset that I'd gained almost 6lbs in the 1st tri, but according to my measurements (and my Doc's opinion), most of that is boob at this point. These things feel like they're full of lead. Not that I'm complaining...nor is DH

I think boobs are just like bellies in pregnancy. Everyone is different and each pregnancy is different. Rumor has it that when the milk comes in you have to sleep sitting up so you don't suffocate yourself

I really hope things work out differently for my boobs this time around. I used to be a full B, sometimes C. No change during pregnancy, but I became an overnight DD cup a few days after giving birth. I breastfed for 7 months, and am now a droopy A.

With the trio I started out a B and hit C's during the pregnancy. I went up to D's when my milk came in, when I quit pumping they settled down to C's.

This time I feel like I am already almost back up to a D.

YES! After DD was born my boob thought they needed to feed the population of China It was crazy!

My boobs have gotten bigger, I have not noticed a sudden growth spurt, rather a gradual one (however, DH isn't complaining about it). I agree that my boobs are not as sore in the morning but they do seem to become more sore and tender as the day goes on.

My boobs did not grow at ALL for either pregnancy. I was a 34B before and I'm a 34B now.

With DD my boobs didn't grow.at.all. This time around they are definatly growing.

Tinkx123x · May 2010

the week I found out I was pregnant all my friends commented on how giant my boobs were. A few days later I was preg!! Everyone is different, I have a friend whose boobs never changed, and others like myself jumped up 2 cup sizes!
