And did grow very little afterwards, not enough for me to have to wear a new bra size. But I am still nursing and we are doing fine. I did have to supplement for the first month but after that I've had a good supply. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-boobs-didnt-grow-at-all-during-pregnancy#post-2226195 Fri, 03 Jul 2015 17:18:32 +0000 Corduroy 2226195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine didn't grow much in pregnancy. I went from a nearly B to a 'holy crap, those are HUGE' during engorgement for a week, now at 3 weeks post partum I'm probably about a B/C. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-boobs-didnt-grow-at-all-during-pregnancy#post-2226146 Fri, 03 Jul 2015 15:50:19 +0000 OhCaptain 2226146@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think this is one of those things that you can't really pin point as "how things happen." Sort of like birth.<br /> I started my first pregnancy as an F, they didn't grow during pregnancy and they didn't really get engorged, but when I weaned my son (two years later) they were a G.<br /> They are still a G now at 36 weeks pregnant. No idea what will happen when this one is born. Hopefully not get too much bigger because I'd really like to not have to buy new nursing bras! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-boobs-didnt-grow-at-all-during-pregnancy#post-2226138 Fri, 03 Jul 2015 15:24:45 +0000 lil owl 2226138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lilteacherbee: Almost the same here. Mine also didn't grow much during my first pregnancy and I was also already a C. When my milk came in they grew gradually till G and I don't know what felt worse: oversupply or not being able to find a fitting bra. I had to wean at 12 ½ month and 12 weeks pregnant and they got smaller than pre-pregnancy. They stayed smaller till around 25 weeks and now at 36 weeks they're also huge again, like after I had DS. Let's hope they won't grow that much again after my milk comes in this time around!</p> <p>I wanted to add: my mom had really small boobs that grew to a F while nursing me (for only 6 weeks) and stayed a D afterwards. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-boobs-didnt-grow-at-all-during-pregnancy#post-2226121 Fri, 03 Jul 2015 14:51:36 +0000 glitterboots 2226121@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine didn't grow at all during pregnancy but I started out with a D cup. I have a 3 week old and they are just slightly bigger. I have plenty of milk even though they didn't get much larger </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-boobs-didnt-grow-at-all-during-pregnancy#post-2226117 Fri, 03 Jul 2015 14:47:25 +0000 Foodnerd81 2226117@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine did grow a lot during pregnancy, but then still grew at least a size or more when my milk came in. I actually never got stretch marks during pregnancy but did on my boobs when the milk came in! (Light and they faded quickly). </p> <p>They gradually got smaller as she nursed less, by the end they were about pre preg size but softer and flatter. But I got pregnant as she was weaker and they went right to full. At 16 weeks they definitely aren't as big as they were at this point last time. </p> <p>So yeah, all over the place here too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-boobs-didnt-grow-at-all-during-pregnancy#post-2226075 Fri, 03 Jul 2015 13:51:32 +0000 lilteacherbee 2226075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine didn't grow much (maybe a tinyyy bit) during my first pregnancy, but I was already a C. When my milk came in, they got big FAST (I got a few stretch marks but they've completely faded now). When I weaned at 13 months, they got smaller than pre-pregnancy (maybe a B), but I was also newly pregnant with this one. Now, I'm 35 weeks with #2 and they're huge again, like after I had the baby huge with #1.</p> <p>So basically, all over the place! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-boobs-didnt-grow-at-all-during-pregnancy#post-2226066 Fri, 03 Jul 2015 13:46:15 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2226066@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kodybear: same here. Wompppp. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-boobs-didnt-grow-at-all-during-pregnancy#post-2226060 Fri, 03 Jul 2015 13:36:05 +0000 daniellemybelle 2226060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think you will see a lot of variety here, but for me, my breasts didn't grow or have any noticeable changes during pregnancy, and my milk never really "came in" and I had chronic low supply for the 19 months I breastfed.</p> <p>I'm not saying that to scare you! Low supply is rare. But that was my experience. I never had any pain or engorgement. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-boobs-didnt-grow-at-all-during-pregnancy#post-2226059 Fri, 03 Jul 2015 13:36:03 +0000 kodybear 2226059@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started at a small A to probably a B when my milk came in. It didn't hurt cuz it was kind of gradual since u start out producing less. But engorgement was uncomfortable! And sadly after nursing/pumping my boobs are smaller than I started. Like probably AA. Womp womp </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-boobs-didnt-grow-at-all-during-pregnancy#post-2226058 Fri, 03 Jul 2015 13:33:13 +0000 NovBaby1112 2226058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My first pregnancy my boobs didn't grow at all (stayed a small B) and I was so nervous I wouldn't have any milk! Right after I gave birth they turned into massive porn star boobs lol. It hurt somewhat bc they grew so quickly and the wngorgement made it worse. But it wasn't too bad! After weaning they went right back down to the size that once were. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-boobs-didnt-grow-at-all-during-pregnancy#post-2226054 Fri, 03 Jul 2015 13:20:45 +0000 buttermilk 2226054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How much bigger did they get when your milk came in, and didn't it hurt!? Seems like if they grow so fast so quick that would totally suck! </p> <p>I'm also assuming if they don't grow during pregnancy that they probably will go back down to normal size after you stop nursing. True?</p> <p>I'm almost 35 weeks and still an A cup! Just wondering! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tingly-breasts#post-1267333 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 21:06:32 +0000 littlek 1267333@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey: Yes like pins and needles... ugh letdown... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tingly-breasts#post-1267199 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 19:45:59 +0000 septca 1267199@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I assume you're asking as a TWW symptom. My breasts got very render every cycle, especially on the sides. The cycle I got my BFP, they were sore and a bit tingling all over, especially right under the nipple. It hurt to take a shower. </p> <p>I also get massive tingling during letdown, but that's a whole other topic. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tingly-breasts#post-1267187 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 19:35:52 +0000 chopsuey 1267187@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My breasts only tingle(d) when I nurse. Kinda like when your foot falls asleep! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tingly-breasts#post-1267102 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 17:56:44 +0000 DillonLion 1267102@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It felt like a mild burning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tingly-breasts#post-1267086 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 17:39:29 +0000 littlek 1267086@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only time I had tingly breast is when BF. It feels like tingling.. Tingling you would get in any other body part. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tingly-breasts#post-1267079 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 17:34:15 +0000 avivoca 1267079@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It kind of feels like when your nips get cold. At least, it did for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tingly-breasts#post-1267067 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 17:19:31 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 1267067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can someone explain what tingly breasts feel like? Is it an itchy sensation? Or more like the way your leg feels when it "falls asleep" after sitting on it? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/changes-to-breasts-during-2nd-tri#post-868946 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 20:07:13 +0000 swedishfish 868946@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't have changes like you described but I did have pain and swelling. I mentioned it to my doctors just in case. They sent me for an ultrasound and ultimately to a breast surgeon. If you're concerned there's nothing wrong with mentioning it :-)</p> <p>ETA - My changes are probably hormonal due to the pregnancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/changes-to-breasts-during-2nd-tri#post-868925 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 19:55:30 +0000 Chillybear 868925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Currently 24 weeks and i've been noticing that my right breast has like bruising or broken vessels on the underside. It doesnt hurt and for the most part i no longer feel the soreness like in the early weeks, is this normal? should i be concerned? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-breasts-grow-and-shrink#post-298330 Mon, 17 Sep 2012 11:38:59 +0000 Mrs. Lantern 298330@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MungBean: Ack! You're telling me it's going to continue to grow after LO is here? :p Does it ever go back to "normal" size? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-breasts-grow-and-shrink#post-298326 Mon, 17 Sep 2012 11:34:39 +0000 shopaholic 298326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I must have spoke/wrote too soon! :) Yesterday I couldn't fit the 34 bras again, had to go back to the 36! Oly think I can think of is water retention. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-breasts-grow-and-shrink#post-297944 Mon, 17 Sep 2012 07:34:17 +0000 sorrycharlie 297944@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>mine haven't grown at all :( only my ribcage!</p> <p>although my right one has stretch marks that just appeared underneath it (39 weeks) but not sure why, as it has not grown. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-breasts-grow-and-shrink#post-297823 Mon, 17 Sep 2012 00:03:24 +0000 pinkcupcake 297823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmm, mine grew two cup sizes and stayed that size until I had LO... Then it increased another up size! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-breasts-grow-and-shrink#post-297233 Sun, 16 Sep 2012 11:03:40 +0000 shopaholic 297233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At about 10-11 weeks, my breasts had grown so full and tender, and I think my actual ribcage area grew too. All my regular size 34B bras were SOOO uncomfortable and tight! I went out and bought 3 new bras in size 34C and 36C.<br /> Now at 15 weeks, I can comfortably fit back into my regular 34B and the 34C bra, but it seems like "the girls" have shrunk back to normal size! </p> <p>Did that happen to anyone else? I've only heard of them getting bigger throughout the pregnancy, not going back down? Not a big deal, just wondering if it's normal. TIA! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-your-boobs-grow#post-15467 Mon, 14 Nov 2011 16:05:16 +0000 tequiero21 15467@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i'll have to see, but so far, i've read people who had their boobs grow like 2-3 sizes by now (i'm at 19 weeks) and so far, i'm still pretty much the same size, just a bit fuller. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-your-boobs-grow#post-15454 Mon, 14 Nov 2011 15:34:56 +0000 Becksabee 15454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was a B pre-pregnancy, went up to a C in the first trimester, and then I'm a D since my milk came in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-your-boobs-grow#post-15448 Mon, 14 Nov 2011 15:31:16 +0000 heffalump 15448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine grew a lot, but sadly I think it's more due to weight gain than the actual pregnancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-your-boobs-grow#post-15446 Mon, 14 Nov 2011 15:30:37 +0000 cyneswith 15446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Suddenly looking forward to breastfeeding - been a D cup for well over a decade. Would love a chance at a C cup without surgery... </p>
