21w3d and no net change. I lost 5 lbs at first, so I've finally gained that back and am where I started according to my scale at home. Eating like a horse, though, so idk how I haven't gained more weight. Boobs have gone from 36D to 38DD, and they're spilling out of those now. Anything larger in size that I find is just ugly so I'm trying to make it work for as long as I possibly can.
Me 31 ~ DH 30 IVF/FET #1 - BFP!! CJW 6/15/2014 DX - PCOS 2004 FET #2 - scheduled for 11/24/15
23 weeks 4 days...initially lost 17.5 pounds, but have put 8 back on! Yippee! So still down 9.5, but at least it's moving in the right direction now My dr is finally pleased with the progress! Boobs are starting to feel more full, but I haven't needed a new bra just yet. Bras were a little big to begin with though...
24 weeks and some change. Up 17 pounds! (8 of which was in the last month !) my tatas have gone from a 34d to 36ddd. I'm not a fan of big hoots! At first I thought this post would make me feel super self conscious and guilty about my gain but I am actually so relieved to see we are all different and all healthy. Everyone looks great in HDBD! Xoxo
Exactly! Not trying to make anyone feel self-conscious, just looking for real life body change info. These websites are so cut and dry on the weight gain and I don't really care for them. Plus I was interested in the boob size changes lol, cuz there isn't much info on that.
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.
I got mine made... Much more comfy and a lot less shoulder damage
I found some at a clearance sale in the maternity section of Babies R Us and at Macy's. If you look at the clearance rack of most department store lingerie sections, thats where the big sizes tend to hang and are always on sale! The maternity ones usually aren't on sale but the ones at Macy's were only about $25. Its worth the splurge bc you'll be using them for at least the next year or so. Good luck!
Down -20. I think my boobs may have grown. I'm going tomorrow to try on some new bras. They feel like they did but my boobs never grew with my other three pregnancies so who knows.

Gained 9 at week 20. Boobs have grown from 34a to 36b so I'm happy with that! Thought to myself today it's like getting to see what a boob job would look like if I ever wanted them bigger permanently when I'm done having kids.
21 weeks and up 15 lbs. it's all in my ass , thighs and bump. I have also had the pleasure of not so polite coworkers say "you are a lot bigger than I thought you would be". People are silly

24 weeks and up 17 lbs. 34A to a 36B. Been enjoying whatever I want to eat but kinda nervous about how much total I will gain seeing how I still have 3+ Months to go!
When I went to the doctor at 20 weeks I was up 17 pounds. It was right after lunch and I was wearing boots, so I think 14 or 15 might be more realistic. My doctor asked me to slow it down and change my diet to less fruit and more protein. Now I'm 21 weeks and 13 pounds up from my pre-pregnancy weight. I'm not so much concerned about the weight because I think I look okay and am not eating fast food or tubs of ice cream, but I really don't want GD or anemia!
At my last week appointment I was up 3 pounds at 22 weeks. I'm trying to add to my snacks I eat during the day. My sweet tooth is completely gone. Being so sick at the beginning has taken away my appetite almost all together. Nothing sounds good. So I'm loading up on healthy food. Oatmeal, yogurt, cheese, eggs. Dr just said to not feel so tired and wiped out just add a few things here and there. Like, a piece of toast with my oatmeal and peanut butter crackers to my yogurt.
I'm finally gaining some weight. I was a little worried about it and asked my dr at my appointment last week, but she didn't seem concerned. But, I'm up 3lbs from my pre-preg weight (after a 7lb loss in 1st tri, so gained back 10lbs total). I went from a 34B to a 36C in 1st tri and haven't had any more growth there, which is good.
I'm 21 weeks and change and have gained 11 lbs so far. Unfortunately my boobs have only shrunk this time. I was nursing when I got pregnant then my milk supply tanked, hormones. I have dropped a cup size
This EXACT thing happened to me... good to know I am not alone.

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
This made me laugh! I totally wear the lightest shoes I can, because they don't want you to take them off. It was so cold one day and instead of wearing my comfy warm boots I chose my little lightweight flats. I have always been a bit neurotic about my weight, but being pregnant now my husband thinks I'm being silly for sure.
24 weeks and up 20lbs!!! I think that's too, but my OB didn't seem concern. I eat a pretty balanced diet (plus ice-cream), walk a lot, and am not really over-weight...so, meh!
But, one of my concerns with too much weight gain is stretch marks
