I went staight to nursing bras, as I couldn't find any maternity bras to compensate for the hugeness! I haven't had any leaking yet though (I am 24 weeks now). I did find a company that makes beautiful nursing bras up to 40M (Cake lingerie). So there are options if you end up gaining cup sizes like I did! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-52978 Mon, 16 Jan 2012 03:01:33 +0000 SugarplumsMom 52978@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This scares me, I'm only 16 weeks and my boobs are ginormous! I've read they're not supposed to hurt so much anymore but they still hurt after sleeping (like they did during the 1st tri) they just aren't so tender or rock hard as much during the day. </p> <p>I'm Asian, and was already big pre-pregnancy, and it's not an issue now as it was when I was young and skinny (backpains and ppl assuming they're fake). But they're friggen HUGE now! I don't even wanna know how big they've gotten. I've already outgrew all my bras ages ago and bought a bunch of soft Lamaze bras (they look like sports bras but softer and more spandexy).</p> <p>My BFF saw me and said it looks like I can feed the town with how huge they've gotten! Lol! It would totally suck if I started spraying too ;( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-52946 Sun, 15 Jan 2012 21:58:21 +0000 Navy_Mommy 52946@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@photojane: It's no joke...my hooters are weapons. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-52942 Sun, 15 Jan 2012 21:54:16 +0000 photojane 52942@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>"DONT TOUCH THEM - THEY'LL SPRAY EVERYWHERE!" </p> <p>@Navy_Mommy: i literally laughed out loud at this. hahaha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-52931 Sun, 15 Jan 2012 21:07:43 +0000 CameronsMomma 52931@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was a B pre-preg too, and now I'm a D/DD depending. Mine leaked for nearly a month (28-32 weeks?), and now they have to be squeezed fairly hard to leak. So it might get better? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-52823 Sun, 15 Jan 2012 15:50:49 +0000 lemondrop 52823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tequiero21:<br /> Don't let that worry you. I'm definitely not well endowed up top, usually a small B. Mine filled out a little, but I gained more in band size than cup size (still a large B when engorged, and making more milk than he can drink). Late pregnancy I started leaking only a little colostrum and could express a few drops, definitely no streams though. </p> <p>Engorgement happened 4 days post partum. We had problems with high bilirubin (not related to nursing) so I've been pumping in addition to help flush him out. I have had endless resources and help available for nursing at the hospital and pediatrician- so don't worry too much about your supply just yet, even if you do have trouble (especially when its more than one baby), lots of help is out there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-52766 Sun, 15 Jan 2012 12:46:09 +0000 pastemoo 52766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Navy_Mommy: Awww.<br /> I think I started leaking last night. Woke up wet. So weird.<br /> I'm 22 weeks, and my boobs started huge and grew 4 inches.</p> <p>And,.. hope I'm as lucky as your mom regarding stretch marks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10456 Sun, 06 Nov 2011 16:07:13 +0000 cyneswith 10456@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Y'all are scaring me! I've got F cups, pre-TTC (normally D cups, but I've lost a lot of weight -just none from my boobs.) I don't wanna gain cup sizes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10432 Sun, 06 Nov 2011 14:57:54 +0000 sorrycharlie 10432@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cvbee - I hope this isn't considered too much of a "threadjack," but I also got horrid stretch marks during puberty! I've just resigned myself. DH bought some stretch mark cream at stop and shop and to humor him I acted excited, but..I think I'm just doomed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10405 Sun, 06 Nov 2011 13:44:06 +0000 Navy_Mommy 10405@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cvbee - I totally agree about stretch cream. Either you'll get them or you won't, no pricey cream will truly prevent them in my eyes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10401 Sun, 06 Nov 2011 13:34:19 +0000 cvbee 10401@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got boob stretch marks (and hip stretch marks) during puberty, so I'm pretty sure I'm doomed to have them with pregnancy. HAving said that, they don't bother me very much because my skin is so white anyways, that there isn't much contrast between the white stretch marks and my skin. (But when they first come in they are purple, and are quite obvious at that point). Some lady at Motherhood Maternity tried to sell me some stretch mark cream........no thanks, big rip off, if you ask me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10382 Sun, 06 Nov 2011 11:38:28 +0000 Navy_Mommy 10382@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Killer B - that's all geneticss. Some women will get stretch marks after implants, others don't. I don't have any stretch marks on my boobs and they've literally AT LEAST tripled, if not quadrupled, in size. But then again my mom (who had 3 babies) doesn't have a single stretch mark on her body, and she got HUGE during pregnancy. I was almost 11 pounds when I was born and she had gained 60 pounds with me. Literally, not q single stretch mark! I'm hoping I'm that lucky. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10377 Sun, 06 Nov 2011 11:27:23 +0000 Killer b 10377@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok, so what blows my mind here are the boob stretch marks! I went from an A cup to a big-ish B, small C after pregnancy and with bf-ing. And my stretch marks were huge to me! What I want to know is, if I've had 10+ months to grow these suckers, why don't women get stretch marks on implants? They grow those suckers overnight!! Argh, making babies can be so unfair ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10376 Sun, 06 Nov 2011 11:25:53 +0000 Navy_Mommy 10376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tequier - I didn't have big boobs pre pregnancy at all, lol, I was a B cup! </p> <p>From what I've read, most women don't leak until the end of their third trimester, if they do at all before the baby is born. But it is POSSIBLE since you start producing colostrum at about 14 weeks... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10371 Sun, 06 Nov 2011 11:15:24 +0000 chopsuey 10371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>WOW! Never heard of that happening before! Consider it a blessing! Your LO's gonna have lots to eat! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10354 Sun, 06 Nov 2011 10:27:14 +0000 tequiero21 10354@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>hm. is it because you ladies have bigger boobs? my boobs have not grown that much (i'm 18 weeks tomorrow) and doesn't look like i'm anywhere near producing any kind of milk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10353 Sun, 06 Nov 2011 10:27:09 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 10353@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hahah hilarious. My boobs gained 1 cup size in the first 4 weeks of being pregnant. Trust me i know what you mean. I hope for your sake you'll be able to breastfeeding or extract. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10331 Sun, 06 Nov 2011 09:45:30 +0000 loveisstrange 10331@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll be 20 weeks on Wednesday and my breasts have been leaking on their own for a good 2 weeks now. I was a small C pre-preg and have outgrown my DD bras.</p> <p>I totally know how you feel. :( DH was loving it until he got leaked on one night during adult time, he hasn't touched them since. lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10330 Sun, 06 Nov 2011 09:40:23 +0000 Navy_Mommy 10330@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not everyones boobs get THIS big (especially this fast) but it does for some people.</p> <p>I'm afraid to put any pressure on them, lol. I officially am carrying around two squirt guns on my chest... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10329 Sun, 06 Nov 2011 09:39:57 +0000 MegWag 10329@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow! That's crazy... I've had significant growth, but no leakage yet. I guess you're just getting extra practice :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10324 Sun, 06 Nov 2011 09:24:12 +0000 Wondermommy 10324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh the fun's just starting. Wait 'til you hear a baby cry. Those suckers will start leaking then, too. No squeezing/touching/bumping required, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10300 Sun, 06 Nov 2011 06:52:47 +0000 sorrycharlie 10300@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This scares me too!! I knew the girls get bigger but holy moly..now I'm afraid. DH is also a boob man. Oh boy..things to look forward to! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10297 Sun, 06 Nov 2011 06:18:43 +0000 MH.Abroad 10297@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh gosh, this scares me. I'm already a C cup, which is large on my small frame. If I get that big... ahh! I won't be able to walk! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10269 Sat, 05 Nov 2011 23:40:20 +0000 runsyellowlites 10269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>"DONT TOUCH THEM - THEY'LL SPRAY EVERYWHERE!" hahaha </p> <p>BWAHAHAHAHA</p> <p>Oh just wait till your milk comes in and you can shoot it across the room at him. BWAH. lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10268 Sat, 05 Nov 2011 23:38:32 +0000 Navy_Mommy 10268@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mleh, Hubby is gonna get back from deployment and be like, "booooooooobs..." And I'll be like, "DONT TOUCH THEM - THEY'LL SPRAY EVERYWHERE!" hahaha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10265 Sat, 05 Nov 2011 23:25:42 +0000 runsyellowlites 10265@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did this almost EXACTLY with DS... thankfully this go round my "growth" hasn't been quite as rapid &amp; I haven't leaked (at it's own will) yet.</p> <p>As frustrating as it may be (&amp; as much as it stinks to get engorged when already that big) it's totally normal.</p> <p>*don't you just love "normal"* </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-kidding-me-already#post-10260 Sat, 05 Nov 2011 23:12:39 +0000 Navy_Mommy 10260@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok, my boobs have gotten HUGE already in my pregnancy. Pre-pregnancy I was a large B cup, now, at 18 weeks, I'm a full E cup.</p> <p>At 15 weeks I noticed my nipples leaking a little bit of clear liquid, but not a huge amount. I read that you start producing colostrum at 14 weeks so this isn't THAT weird.</p> <p>Well now, at 18 weeks, the leaking is WAY worse. And not only that, if I squeeze my breast in the slightest bit a HEAVY stream comes pouring out. Like, I could feed a baby, lol.</p> <p>Did this happen this early to anyone else? How do you deal with it? Do I have to worry about clogged ducts or anything if its just colostrum, not milk?</p> <p>Mleh...I hate boobs, lol. </p>
