I work at Victoria's Secret so I'm very aware of how my bras fit and I'm shocked that I've already grown a full cup size. I'm only 7.5 weeks! Is that normal? I definitely didn't think it happened this fast. Are yall 'growing' already?
I might need to go up too but really don't want to admit it because I am already a 36DDD which I hate and don't even want to have to think about buying the next size up!

I had to buy new bras a few weeks ago (I'm 11 weeks now). I went from a 36C to a 38D. When I went materinty clothes shopping last week, I was told not to be surprised if I go up another cup size or two. Sheesh!

YES!!! I actually talked to the doc about it at my appointment on Monday, because I was concerned. I've already gone from a 40D to a 42DDD! (I havent gained any weight yet though, so Im not sure why the band size went up?) Anyway, I for some reason, always thought that they wouldnt get bigger until the 3rd trimester to prep for milk production or something. Wrong! Apparently, they do most of their growing in the first trimester. And terrified of getting tons bigger, I asked if they just keep going at this rate or what? The doc said the growth does taper off & "stabilizes" a bit more after 14 weeks. Holy moly.... lol.

My boobs grew most between BFP and 8 weeks! Now they are leveling off...but I am up a cup size too
This gives me hope!
I don't want to spend too much on bras now that I'll just outgrow again in another week (I'm in speciality size store territory - not cheap), so I've been wrangling the girls in with a combo of too-tight bras topped with sports bars.
I tried to wear a bikini top Labor Day weekend that had fit perfectly the week before, but my boobs were spilling out in every direction.
Re: Bra size changed already?!
Yep! By 7w last pregnancy I went from a 34DD to a 36GG/H.
I tried to squeeze in DDD's for a while, but that was a fruitless effort.
It's funny that people still think it's NURSING that makes your boobs change. It makes me giggle.
I am hoping that nursing will make them shrink! Does that happen?
Eh, more like, deflate. I went from a 36GG to a 36G. So they got smaller and flatter, but still nowhere near the size they were pre pregnancy.
That might happen even if you don't nurse though.
I think it is normal.
It happened to me both times. The first time around it outed me to my parents at nine weeks. I know, gross.
Me too!
