Did anyone else's boobs shrink?

I'm at 5 weeks and a couple days ago I noticed there was some extra room in my bra! I read that women have seen their boobs shrink a little after they swelled up (like in the 2nd or 3rd trimester), but mine never got bigger. I lost about 1.5 lbs in the last couple weeks (likely due to the copious amounts of water I'm drinking and salads I'm eating because I'm always thirsty) but I doubt that would account for it. Has anyone else had this happen?

  • I haven't had this happen in the first trimester, but my boobs got significantly smaller after I had my DD. As in I was a D pre-pregnancy, and DD during pregnancy, and a B post-pregnancy. The girls never came back!

  • Wow, that's nuts. I was a large C so wouldn't mind a little shrinkage, but didn't realize they could go down two cup sizes permanently!

  • If you lose weight that could cause it, even small amounts. Lol every time I drop a few pounds my boobs leave first.
  • Really? Maybe that's what it is then. In that case I don't think I'll have to worry in a couple more months once the weight starts coming back on. :)

  • Mine didn't shrink, but they aren't growing or sore either. Probably your weight loss.

  • Mine shrunk!!! Not happy about it either...they grew bigger with my son but this time smaller :(( I'm guessing it's cause I stopped breast feeding right when I got preggo
  • Mine haven't, but there isn't much there to begin with.  I have noticed that some of the swelling has gone down, but they are still slightly larger then before pregnancy. With DD they got a tad bigger but nothing noticeable to anyone but me.  I am really hoping this pregnancy is  the one I get some serious pregnancy boobs :)

  • Good Lord I hope not!  I'm small anyway, can't deal with too much smaller.  I did shrink after I was done BF my 1st and they never came back.
