  I was at a breastfeeding class and they told us to wait until the last 4 weeks of pregnancy to see what size your breasts are at. Even then I feel like they may get bigger though...

  I normally wear a 36B but I go up a cup size when breastfeeding to a 36c. I stupidly bought 2 bras a Target at my normal size...gotta try to exchange with no receipt...hopefully Target will forgive my pregnancy brain!!

  I bought a nursing bra this weekend in my "current" (pregnancy) size. I'm five weeks out. Hoping it will fit; I'm thinking (hoping) the nursing bra will be a little generous with fluctuating sizes.

  I started this pregancy as 36DD and I have gone up a couple of cup sizes already. The lactation consultant who taught my breastfeeding class said only buy one or two of the sleeping kind to get you through the first couple weeks and then re-measure after your milk comes in. She said generally you'll get a cup size bigger than your last month of pregnancy, but that varies for woman to woman.

  @tuinstrab target will let you exchange without a receipt. They will even let you return without a receipt and just an ID.

  I was a 34DD before having my son and ended up a 36F while nursing him. In my experience, my boobs got bigger when my milk came in, but they went back down to the size they were at the end of pregnancy after a few weeks.
  
  At the start of this pregnancy I was wearing a 36DDD and ordered my nursing bras in a 36g.

  Thanks. I will order 36G. I think I'd rather err on the side of too big.

  You're welcome. I've had pretty good success with returns and exchanges through Amazon, so if that doesn't work for you, it shouldn't be too hard to exchange.
