Breast in show...

A little backstory: after being severly flat chested most of my life, I finally achieved B cup status about two years ago at the tender age of 30. Well, I went to Victoria secrets today after noticing some snugness in my bras. Imagine my surprise when the woman measured me at a D cup!!! I'm only 10w2d. How big are these things going to get?!!

Re: Breast in show...

  • My nursing bras last time were H and I. I started with full C/small D though
  • Loading the player...
  • I'm a 32D (which is small) and have only noticed a bit more fullness. My sister went up a few cups, which is common!
  • Wait until they become engorged a few days after you give birth.  I was absolutely horrified looking in the mirror.

  • i don't know why but it actually put me in a bad mood. I don't want to have to keep spending money on bras. First world problems I know ;)
  • Went from a D to an F with DD. And they are now spilling out of my size F bras. Can't wait to get a reduction!!

  • When I am breastfeeding I am a whole cup size fuller. I am a 36D when not breastfeeding, 38DD at the end of pregnancy and 36DD when breastfeeding has settled in. Some of my friends go up 2 sizes though. For last pregnancy and this one I actually got smaller in my first trimester because I lost my milk (baby was 9 months old and still breastfeeding when I got pregnant). It's weird, but I like it because I can fit in my normal bras for a short time.

  • I'm a full B, went up to a D right before delivery, then back to a C.  I had JUST purchased bras back in my B cup when I got KU again.
  • I went from a C to a G with DD. They were HUGE!
  • Get ready girl. A few days after having baby, you won't even recognize your chest. I'm talking rock hard porn star boobs. They will be so hard, all the way out to your armpits. It was so crazy - I'm on the smaller side too, pre pregnancies and babies. I was a 34B and when I got fitted during my last trimester and they told me a D, I couldn't believe it. Buying a DD bra was crazy!

  • They are a little bit bigger.. They feel like they are trying to end me though. Hurts so bad.
  • Wait until they become engorged a few days after you give birth.  I was absolutely horrified looking in the mirror.

    The day this happened to me I thought they were going to stay like that forever and it freaked me out!
  • I'm a FTM so I can't speak to what's going to be happening, but by about 6 1/2 weeks my bras were really starting to bother me, just not really fitting at all. At 7 1/2 weeks I decided I needed to go get fitted and pick a couple new ones with a little room to grow since I figure they'll still grow some more over the next 7 months before I start thinking about nursing bras. To my surprise, in just a few weeks I had gone from a 36C to a 36DD. I bought a couple of those and an F, which also pretty much fits. This is ridiculous.

  • I'm a B, got up to a DD in the hospital with my daughter, but stabilized at a C after nursing. My advice? I usually shop at VS too, but find some comfy bras that can take you from pregnancy to nursing and are sized with S, M, L...almost like sports bras. It's not worth ruining nice VS ones especially if you plan to nurse!

  • I was a B before my first pregnancy - up to a D while nursing then not even an A after...now I'm filling up A cups and my husband and I can't stop smiling! I keep looking down and seeing "cleavage" then looking in the mirror and realizing I'm still teeny. I intend to take many pictures as my girls get bigger :)

    This sounds familiar!  I was probably a small C before my son.  I got to a generous C while pregnant, and if I may say so, they looked pretty good.  Nursing, as PP have said, will give you porn star boobs like you won't believe.  I had great boobs for my full year of nursing and after weaning - they totally melted to nothing!  Ahhh!  Oh well, that's what they're there for, anyway.  

    As of now, I am way small (still) at 9 weeks.  Maybe this pregnancy once my boobs are looking good I'll take photos to plan for my future breast aug!

  • I know!  I have never had boobs before either and these things are out of control!  I've been only wearing sports bras recently as I'm afraid to drop any $ on a good bra not knowing how much bigger they will get.  
    Although sadly, my ass seems to be growing at a similar pace and my stomach is still perfectly flat....  maybe the baby is growing somewhere else other than my tummy?

  • Not to down play your new awesome boobies, but I've found that Victoria's Secret is a little off in their sizing. I think it's a sales gimmick. They tell you our boobs are huge, so you have to buy new bras. I could be wrong, but their bras have always seems small to me.
  • I loved my engorged porn star boobs after DD was born!  The aftermath of pumping for 14 months on the other hand wasn't so pretty.  I'm liking that I don't have 2 flat pancakes now!

  • I'm not enjoying my new boobs. They have always been a dd but are.definitely much bigger already. I'm in denial and haven't went in search of a couple new bras. My ass is apparently getting bigger too. According to my husband
  • I am a large DD pre-pregnancy/nursing. When my milk came in, it was scary. I mean, I looked like one of those woman that have implants so big that their skin appears like it's gonna rip open at any minute. When my son was 4 days old, my mom invited me out to lunch with her and my grandma and I said that I would love to come but I wasn't sure I could fit my boobs out the door. I was serious.

    They did eventually go back to normal, but it took over a year AFTER I quit nursing. Then I got pregnant again and we are starting all over :( I hope to someday get a reduction.

  • I was a full C before getting pregnant with DS.  By the time I gave birth I was falling out of my E cup.  He's 15 months now, and I was measured a few months before getting pregnant.  I was a DD.  Now that I'm pregnant again I'm falling out of my new DD bras.  I'm scared to see how much bigger these suckers are going to get.  I know most women love having big boobs, but I feel like a cow.  Definitely going to consider a reduction after #2 is born.

    Haha I loved mine too! They were insanely uncomfortable, but damn, I felt pretty hot! LoL

    This. Nordstrom is the way to go for accurate sizing.

    I was gonna say this, but then there were sooooo many d/dd/g posts that I thought, maybe it's not just VS! But yeah, they are at least one, if not two, cup sizes too generous.

    Bwahhahahaha thiiiiiiis. It was like I had someone implanted giant rocks into my chest. (DH was happy.)

    We had a breastfeeding specialist come to our house and she took one look at my boobs and was like "Oh my god you must be in agony! GET SOME MILK OUT OF THERE!"

    On the plus side, she was tres impressed at my milk production lol, like I'm a prize winning cow!
