s/o boobs. No change?

anyone had no change at all in their boobs?
I can try and imagine that mine have changed but I really don't think they have. At all.
They may feel a little tender but thats about it....
I worry that this could cause a problem with BF'ing since in the book I'm reading it says that they are going through all of these appearcnce changes to prepare for BF'ing and I really don't think mine have.
Anyone elses have NO change?

Re: s/o boobs. No change?
I noticed mine got bigger in 1st tri but to me I dont think they have changed at all since then, I think they went up maybe half a cup, but I already have larger boobs (C/D)
My dh said its just because my baby bump is getting bigger that I don't notice the boobs getting bigger, perhaps he is right. However like my previous post today one breast has started to leak a little.
so perhaps little to no change doesn't make a difference and as far as I know size doesn't matter on your BFing success

Me! My boobs didnt change during my first pregnancy and they havent changed this pregnancy.
I discussed this with my OB at my 28 week apt because I was wondering if it was what lead to my breastfeeding failure after my DS was born. She said its "not the size of your boobs its how you use them." And that my short lived breastfeeding experience with DS was more likely due to his being born premature...so my milk wasn't ready to come in.
I wouldn't worry too much. Mine didn't change very much at all with G before I had him and then wowzers!! They got H-U-G-E about 3 days after he was born. They went back down even smaller than they were originally after I stopped nursing.
This time they didn't get bigger until I was in the 2nd Tri. Now they are the size they were before I had G.
Mine haven't changed at all, and I'm slightly worried. I'm an A cup to begin with, so I just hope that milk comes in and I'm able to feed my baby. I have noticed that I'm leaking a bit, so hopefully that is a good sign.
My mom is a lactation consultant, and she keeps telling me not to worry, but I can't help it.
This. I've had NO change at all. I'm a A, sometimes a B so I've been very worried about not being able to BF. I asked the doctor about it and she said "As long as you've got a nipple and little bit of boob, you're fine!" Which was funny, but hasn't reassured me too much. They aren't sore, they aren't bigger and they aren't leaking. My nipples are a little darker, but that happened in the first or second month.
mine are a C cup but I don't really worry about them getting smaller after because technically that can't happen
Unless of course the bags pop. haha.
I was just hoping the non change wouldn't cause BF'ing problems. Although I was originally an A cup so there wasn't too much tissue to begin with.

I'm no doctor but I think this kind of answers your question...your augmentation has probably already stretched the skin to around what they might have been naturally while preggers...since you don't have a lot of tissue there probably just isn't a noticeable change...
I'm sure when the milk comes in you'll see a difference so don't worry too much!
This is me too. I bought a larger band size but not cup. I was already a DD, so going up a cup size wasn't high on my priority list.
Maybe a little but not much. My rib cage has expanded from a 34 to a 38 but my cup size has only gone from a B to barely a C. No other changes though - they aren't sore, nipples and areolas the same size, same color. I'm trying not to worry about it.
I'm totally lurking here, and have no idea how I ended up on this board of all boards..... anyways, I had absolutely no changes whatsoever during pregnancy (tenderness, size, etc) and have been EBF since day 1 without any issues.
