2nd Trimester

2nd+ timers talk to me about your boobs...

So I mentioned in a pp that my major absent sign this time around has been a lack of tenderness in the boobs. It was how I suspected I was prego the first time around and such a huge symptom. I was up 2 bra sizes by the end of the 1st tri last time! This time--nothing! No soreness, no increase in size. In fact I'm now a cup size down since I stopped breastfeeding :( I breastfed LO#1 for 9 months and asked my mw if this was a common occurance after bfing. She said no, it's weird (really, she said "weird", but that's a whole other rant...) So please talk to me about your boobs!Wink

  • This is my 3rd pregnancy and the boob fairy never visited me till after the baby was born. And even then, that heifer's visit was shortlived. I only went up a cup size with my son from a B to a C. With my daughter I was at a D and only got more volume...never went up a bra size. This time...nothing has changed and probably won't till my milk comes in.

  • My boobs remained up a half/whole cup size (generally about a DD/E) after weaning DS. I BFed for 19 months. I am already up to a G this pregnancy. I never got this big until my milk came in last time. I am pretty jealous of you actually... Oh well.
  • my boobs are definatly much more sensitive this time around, DH is not allowed near them LOL! also they have filled out ALOT! I BFed DD up until about 4 months before my BFP. so they have definatly kept their size, I am sure I will be going up 2 cup sizes by the time my milk comes in.

  • My boobs also got smaller after I stopped BF DS which only makes sense since they are no longer producing milk.  This time I also didn't have the major tenderness that I did with DS's pregnancy, but they have gotten bigger through out the pregnancy.

  • I never had boob pain with either pregnancy - nor did they grow much at all until my milk came in.  I still had a fabulous supply and I'm just now weaning kiddo - I wouldn't worry about it ;-)
  • I was so sore last time and I felt like my chest was much larger than normal - but I am small. I weaned around 17/18 months and got pregnant around 19/20 and nothing this time. Maybe a small size increase, but no pain at all.
  • Mine were the same up until a couple weeks ago and all of the sudden they have sprouted again. And they HURT again. They hurt early ona nd grew fast with Lila, but its' been very different with this one.
  • I did not BF with DS. By the time he was born, I was a 32 I. I know I got even bigger when the milk came in. I was originally a 32F, and got back to 32G before getting pregnant again. I really don't think my milk ever totally dried up because I could still express just a little ( or it is colostrum ) even now. Since becoming pregnant again, I am a 32 H. I did not experience any tenderness or soreness this time, but I certainly did last time.

    I'm all stretched out. My boobs don't have a clue what's going on.

  • My boobs didn't get any larger nor did they hurt at all with DS. This time I've gone up about half a cup size and they were really sore up until a week or so ago.

  • With DD my boobs were very sore and they went up two cup sizes.  This time my boobs haven't been sore at all but they have grown a cup size.

  • Ugh! My boobs got big last time then shrunk to smaller than when I started after BFing DD for a year.  This time around I think they are getting even bigger and faster!

  • My boobs were super sore with my DD and they got huge immediately which was why I suspected I was pregnant, I went from a 32B to a 34DD so it was very noticeable! I went back down to a 32B after I lost my baby weight and this time my boobs are not sore at all, and they have only gotten a little bigger. I would say I'm a 32 C now, instead of a B. I wonder if they will get any bigger.
