Anyone else have monster boobs?

I've gone from a small 34B to now snuggly fitting into a 36D.  I got fit at the maternity store and she said that I should get the larger band size for later, but I'm afraid I won't fit into it very long lol.  She said it should fit my entire pregnancy, but I think she's full of crap.  I just picked up one new bra for now.

Re: Anyone else have monster boobs?

  • ::raises hand:: It was one of my first indications that I might be pregnant. I'm normally a 36C/34D, so I'm scared to see how much bigger they'll get in the weeks to come. I'm nearly spilling out of my bras right now. :(

  • :)  Haha- I recall the boobs being the first thing to demand new articles of clothing.  I bought a wireless bra from A Pea in a Pod that I really looooooved last time.  It's not cute, don't get me wrong, but super-comfy.

  • Holycow!!! Mine have gotten bigger but I can still fit into most of my bras.  

    I wouldn't not now shopping for anything later, just wait until you need it to get it you never know how things will go.  I'm sure she was just tring to get a sale.

  • They are growing bigger by the day. :( I'm a very small person, but somehow I was blessed with large boobs, and I think I'll be toppling over soon! DH is loving it, but I am dreading them getting any bigger.  They hurt, and it's just going to look weird!!!

    My H is very excited about it, but I'm terrified by the thought of them getting any larger.  My old stretch marks on my boobs are being joined by lovely new ones Sad

    Oh no! I hadn't event thought of stretch marks. :( We just need to remind ourselves that this is worth it. I am, however, running out to buy some Mederma!

  • Mine are and I'm not sure what to do about it!  It's silly but I'm just nervous about buying anything 'maternity' until I've had my first appt at 8 weeks.  So, I'm left stuffing my 34Ds into their spots.  I'm terrified to see how big their going to get -- I already think their too big!  DH is loving it though so I guess there's some silver lining.

  • I'm a 36DD so I can only imagine what they are going to be like in a couple of weeks.  Right now they are spilling out and I will probably have to go and buy at least 1 bra this weekend.  Goodness.

    You should be able to buy a bra band extender at any maternity store. It is a piece of material that has hooks on one end, and brackets on the other...it hooks onto your bra and expands the band width. That way, if you don't need a bigger cup size but need a wider band, you don't have to buy a new bra.

  • I'm already a 36DD so I'm not looking forward to the girls getting any bigger! So far they feel like someone used them as a punching bag, really sore all over. And my nipples are angry at me for even wearing a bra. They don't like to be touched at all. Fortunately, though, I haven't gone up in bra size,...yet. I know it will only be a couple more weeks (or days) before I have to go shopping.

  • Well, I'm normally a 36A, and have grown to a 36B, so far, so they're not "monster boobs" by any stretch of the imagination, but they're big to me, haha! I went and bought two 36B bras the other day, but I'm already filling those out pretty well! My husband is sooo excited :)

  • I went up a size by 4.5 weeks. I went from a 34DD to a comfortable 34DDD. Like Steff said, DH is loving it! I however am frightened to know what's going to happen in the coming months.

    The major downside is that they are incredibly tender at all times..

  • Me. None of my bras fit, even the 34Ds. I've switched to sports bras until they stop growing and I can buy some more bras.

  • Yes! Mine are huge! I am normally a D, but I just bought a new bra last night that is a DD, bc all of my D's were getting soo tight.  I was having major overflow already.  I am worried they are gonna be F's by the end!

  • I'm in the same boat. I had JUST bought myself some new bras before I found out, and was a little amused that even though I'd been losing weight, my boob size had gone back up (were D, then C, then D again). Its now two weeks later and they're already too big for the Ds!  So frustrating. I'd go for a sports bra, but they don't tend to support me comfortably enough for the long term.

     How long before they STOP growing?

  • I had monster boobs before we started TTC.  I am a 36DD now but I think they're slowly starting to get bigger.  No soreness yet though.
  • Ugh...no monster boobs yet!  I'm a member of the "Itty Bitty Titty Committee" and can't wait to get boobs dang it!  I can tell however, they are getting slightly bigger, but maybe I'm willing it more than it's actually happening! lol

  • Mine were big to begin with, but now they feel puffy and swollen and have all those nasty blue veins. Yeah, I know, TMI.

     Yay! Another IBTC member!

     I actually just got my two BFP's today, but my boobs were the first thing to give me a hint and now they are gettin' nice and fluffy! I love it as well as DH of course, but I'm not so fond of the soreness. I'm interested to see how far they go... and stay that waySmile
