Okay ladies, especially STM's... After your LO came, did you return to your normal size? Or smaller? Or stayed bigger?! This is just...almost obscene how big my boobs have gotten. I want my "old" boobs back!
I went up a size, almost 2 and stayed that way while nursing. But after I stopped they went back to their normal size, only lower and flatter unfortunately.
I was a 34B before pregnancy, got up to a 34D during pregnancy than who knows how big they were for a few months at the beginning of breastfeeding Nursing bras luckily come in S, M, L type sizes but I'm guessing the biggest was 34DD. Anyway, starting at about 4 months postpartum they oh so slowly shrank back down through the letters until when I finally stopped nursing at 2.5 years they were a teeny tiny 34A. Sad to say!
Lol oh gosh! I've heard stories from all ends of the spectrum. My sister just had her second and is lamenting that they actually shrunk. Mine ballooned with my first, I was a full 32F before I got pregnant with this one. I was sure there was no way they could grow anymore. LOL! Boy was I wrong, I'm up to a G but thankfully they seemed to have stalled (knock on wood) but I know I'll be putting Pam Anderson to shame once I nurse.
All I can say is, be prepare for anything and when you're done having kids....theres always a mommy makeover if they are not a size you can live with. That's my plan after I finish nursing, I want normal size boobs again!
I'm over here just hoping mine will get bigger! 24w and no change... Not sure if that's good or bad. I've always been small chested and an hoping for bigger ones with pregnancy. No luck yet!
I was a B before, D at end of pregnancy/beginning of nursing, shrunk down to an in between A/B at the end of nursing/after. Mine still haven't grown out of my B cup this pregnancy.

I was a full DD before baby. During pregnancy went up to a who knows what letter. (Stores didnt sell bras for my boobs. Had to wear special nursing bras) Then after having baby and BF for 2 months. My boobs were big for a while but about 6 months later they went down to a very saggy and low D.
I plan on getting a boob lift and boob job after baby number 3. (I'm pregnant with number 2 now.)

My boobs got big during my pregnancy, and then even bigger when breastfeeding. When we stopped breastfeeding after 14 months, they went back to normal. But that was a few months before getting prego again. And so the cycle begins again lol
My problem is that I am a size H mainly cuz if my genes and weight. I haven't grown yet (and hope I don't grow) but I'm hoping I shrink alot after breast feeding
Just stopped BFing 2 months ago (at 18 months). I think after about 12 months they went to a normal size as we slowed down and they've stayed the same.
I definitely got HUGE and engorged in the beginning!
With my first I had beautiful larger c cups after my first they were DDs I hated them until after I breastfed for a year. Then they went down to bs now I'd do anything to keep my boobs with this pregnancy. Yes they are lower but I'm in my mid twenties with one and a half babies so I'm not going to complain hahaha I have seriously looked into implants if I loss these pretty girls hahaha
That was my next question...anyone with implants? I got implants last year in March (almost a year today!), and was a perky 34DDD. My boobs are now ginormous and not looking nearly as cute. Wondering if I'll lose this recent boob gain and go back to my wonderful pre-preggo tatas! Lol. By the sounds of it though...it's not sounding like it!
No implants - but mine are obscene 34F and I know it will get worse when the milk comes in. I was a DD before and they went back to normal after 6 months bf first time around.... Thinking of a lift and reduction to a full C after I'm done
I have implants and I am on my third (and final) kid.... After the first they dropped a bit (and I actually liked them better than before because they had been a little high previous to getting preggers) but with the second they dropped even more.... Now that I'm pregnant again they feel even bigger and I am def planning on an "adjustment" when I pop this guy out;). They definitely get lower with each one in my experience:(
