joules235 - have you tried making those "cookies" that are supposed to be great for supply? A good friend of mine is expecting and also nursing, and have said they've been a life saver! I'll see if I can find the recipe...

Lactation cookies? I haven't tried them but she was kind of ready to wean anyway. I would like for DD to be totally weaned by the time the new baby arrives cause it will be easier to nurse only one at a time. We are down to just 1 session a day and sometimes we skip that, she is usually only reminded of it if she sees me without a shirt and its all for comfort as I don't think there is any milk in there right now. I do plan on making some when this LO is born though, just in case.

Those are probably them - she always refers to them as "boob" cookies. More than anything they sound delicious! She sent me the recipe, I'd be glad to PM you if you need it

I'm 22 weeks and up 8lbs. I've also gone from a 36C to a 36D and like @nutmegs8 I am so not used to full coverage bras! But am loving my new boobs!!

MrsAy · February 2014

I'm at 22 weeks, lost 8 pounds during the first 4 months but put 6 back during the last month and a half. I started overweight so I'm not supposed to put too much weight anyway.

cas889 · February 2014

21 weeks and 12 pounds up. But that's from my first weigh-in at my appointment at 7 weeks. I'm pretty sure I gained a pound or two after I got my BFP. My boobs were already big, and have probably gone up a cup size, but the bra I was wearing before was a bit roomy, so I haven't changed sizes yet.

PinkKEL9 · February 2014

To all you girls with larger than DD boobs: Where are you buying your bras???

They never have my size at Target/Kohls, etc. I bought a few DDDs at Lane Bryant but would love to know other options as well.

shellbell813 · February 2014

20 weeks and 3 lbs. But I started very overweight and attribute some of it to eating slightly better... though I've been eating more recently because my appetite returned in full force!

@PinkKEL9 - I recently went to a Hanes outlet store and bought a bra from there. I wanted *very specifically* one without a wire because the wire on another bra I had was starting to dig in and drive me insane. They had the most amazing Playtex bra there and I wear it almost every day. There weren't a ton of choices for the size (40DDD which is equal to the 40F at Motherhood Maternity). I have 2 bras from Motherhood Maternity that are size 40F that are nursing bras that I can use after the baby comes but they both have underwires.

They don't give us a ton of options!

Runningmomfam · February 2014

24 weeks and up 10 pounds. I'm fine with it. I enjoy my food and try to have a good balance of healthy foods and treat foods. I can't live with out pizza, bread, pasta and chocolate.

AandJ28 · February 2014

@abastian00 - will you pm me the recipe?? Not that I need it right now but it would be good to have on hand.

I have had good luck finding a couple bras at Dillard's but they are expensive but have been my favorite! I used to be a 32DD and could never find brad without padding.

firebelle26 · February 2014

24 w 5 days, had my appt yesterday and I'm up 20 lbs. 10 of which I gained in the last 4 weeks! I guess I need to stop with all the Rice Krispies treats, cookies and carb overload! Time to start making better food choices

mschware · February 2014

Almost 21 weeks, 10 pounds up, went from a 32D to a 32DD

hlp2709 · February 2014

Not gain any weight and 20 weeks. On the other note bar was at 38 B to a 38 C and I can say that my left one is bigger then the right by far.

BabyCurtiss2014 · February 2014

24 weeks and up 14 lbs since becoming preggers! It doesn't help I just rewarded myself with a Starbucks caramel frapucchino and a Chick-Fil-A sandwich lol. I did skip the fries so that's something, right?!!

is it possible to weigh our boobs?

Oh how I've tried..... I started out at somewhere between an H and a J cup...God only knows what I'm at now. Probably something to do with Roman numerals. 23 weeks and up 8 pounds. Most likely something to do with my recent donut obsession, although I feel like the belly has gotten enormous lately.

I'm dying over here about the roman numerals!

This is me. Before pregnancy I was a G or H depending on the brand. I really need some new bras now because Im overflowing my H bras. I hate bra shopping though and when they are that big its hard to find one that's comfortable without having to try on many. The only place around me that sells them in my size is Lane Bryant and theirs only go up to H so I guess Im just gonna have to get some off the internet when I do break down and buy some.

At my last appointment I was 20 weeks and down 15 lbs. I started out overweight anyways so my doctor isn't concerned. The morning sickness has not let up one bit the whole time and is still going strong. I'm still getting sick multiple times a day and with just about every meal. My dr said I probably wont end up gaining any weight in the end the way its looking but baby is right on track and looks healthy so that's all I care about.

Mom&nurse · February 2014

At 24 weeks I was down 15 lbs and gained 1 back. I joked and said if my baby weighs 1 lb now I technically didn't gain anything right ? She did!! Lol. Over wright to start. Don't want to know what size my boobs are. Out of control for sure.

Nordstrom Rack has tons of DD+ size bras

gmc222 · February 2014

21 weeks and up 10 lbs. I'm psyched considering I gained at least twice as much by now with DD, and my eating habits are pretty much the same. I was also overweight to start with and trying not to gain more than 25 compared to the 40 I gained last time.

I swear by Soma Intimates - all my bras and pj's are from there. Pricey, but totally worth it, and they have sales and coupons regularly. I pretty much only wear the vanishing back front-close bras and they're genius for my DDD/E/F tatas.

RedMar · February 2014

1 day away from 24 weeks... Last I knew my weight gain was 16lbs, but I'm sure it's more than that! Tots have grown out of most bras. Gunna need to go shopping soon for some new ones bc I am only fitting into sports bras.

eryale · February 2014

21 weeks and up 9lbs... No boobs yet though! I'm still a 36A. I know some of you would love to donate... And if it were possible I'd welcome a donation for a 36C boost!

zolastele · February 2014

almost 24 weeks, +17 lbs. Boobs only went up from C to D, so I guess the weight is mostly going elsewhere...

fsumom · February 2014

I am 24 weeks today and up about 18lbs as of this morning but I have lost a few pounds due to watching what I eat and eating much healthier recently. February 4th I was up 21lbs. Obviously I'm not trying to lose weight but I'm just making sure I don't gain 50lbs like I did with DD.

YetterEA · February 2014

I am 21 weeks and down 9 pounts. Like some other PPs, I was overweight to start AND terrbily sick through about 18 weeks so OB is not concerned. However, I am a little jealous of everyone's cute bumps. You literally cannot tell I am even pregnant.

Cherylwang · February 2014

Is it just me or does anyone else wear light weight clothes to get weighed in at the doctors office? I hate that it's winter and my clothes are heavy and the scale is in the hallway so taking off shoes is awkward. Ugh! I have a apt in a few hours so I will see what my weight gain is soon

MrsCase1 · February 2014

Still no boobs and this is my second pregnancy. Ugh. LOL. Nurse weighed me on Tuesday and said they'd probably move up my GD test and the doctor was like, "Um, no. She's fine." Ugh. LOL.

@hopin4babies I am the same sizish. Or was before pregnancy. I'm pretty sure any store around isn't going to sell my size in a nursing bra (Lane Bryant was the only good place to get regular ones)... But so far I can still wear my old bras comfortably enough... Trying to decide if having a nursing bra is worth all the trouble... since I don't expect finding one in my size to be a treat...

Uh, YES. They don't tell me to take off my coat or shoes, so I try not to wear my boots.

Deems83 · February 2014

24 Weeks today and up 19 pounds. I cant stop eating ice cream, someone please stop me! haha all in all its fine though. I think mostly I have gained in my boobs, stomach, and slight love handles. 3.5 months to go and I would be fine if I stayed around a 35-40 lb weight gain (obviously less is fine with me too).

stacisoccr · February 2014

I'm 22w4d. I've gained 10 pounds so far.

24 weeks and -2. I'm finally getting back to my normal. I've actually only gone up one cup size this pregnancy as opposed to my last two when I looked like Dolly Parton.

Did your doctor seem concerned about this? At my last appointment I was -3 at 23 weeks and they were concerned.

Abenedict2011 · February 2014

22 weeks and up 22lbs. Gained 13lbs in the last month alone so trying to be a little healthier in my choices. Boobs 36d to 36dd but need the room of a 38 soon.

misscarter87 · February 2014

23 weeks up 7 lbs!

mercy0606 · February 2014

21 weeks and up 6 pounds. Boobs are huge and it's time for a new bra again! I'm scared my butt will be enormous, but I'm doing prenatal yoga and want to add walking.

k318 · February 2014

23 weeks and up 22 pounds
Went from a 32d to a 34dd

I need to ensure that I am making healthier choices and not over indulging. I do not want to gain an excessive amount of weight this time and have trouble losing it after. For my health, vanity and mental health. I don't want the added stress of having a bunch of weight to lose after healing from delivery and taking care of a newborn and toddler.

izzetoot · February 2014

Ive been avoiding the scale, but... Im 24 weeks, up 16 lbs and went from a 36 C to a very snug 38 DD. I really hope these tata's calm down soon. I feel like my rib cage is expanding and it hurts to wear a bra

Grosskr · February 2014

24 weeks up 22 pounds. I really need to start eating healthier but it all tastes so good!!!

texasmama2014 · February 2014

Pushing 22 weeks now and up 15-17 lbs. 10 lbs in the new year. Boobs are up probably about 2 cup sizes, I'm squeezing myself into 36DDD's. not sure where the weight is, because my bump is pretty small, and my pants mostly button...

amackattack · February 2014

I weigh myself at home at the same time of day and this morning at 22 weeks I gained 10 pounds. I am pumped about this! It's right on track for where I wanted to be. I've gone from 34B to 34D. I'm sure tonight's italian V day dinner will do some damage, but so far I'm happy with this progress!
