The underwire in my other bras was very uncomfortable. Hubs says they definitely feel bigger, though, ha ha! Guess I'll find out when it's time to buy nursing bras. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-cup-size-increase-when-you-were-pregnant#post-287707 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 17:03:28 +0000 heartonastring 287707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh...yes! Started out as a 34DD and have no idea what I am now, but I can say I am much bigger. I've given up on normal bras and am now just wearing these (<a href="http://www.geniebra.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.geniebra.com/</a>) because they are much more accommodating and comfortable for my very sore boobs.</p> <p>DH thinks it's awesome, I do not. Today I'm wearing a v-neck tee with a camisole underneath and I still have a ridiculous amount of cleavage. It's hard to feel like this much cleavage is appropriate in an office environment, but I can't seem to help it.</p> <p>ETA: I'm only 9w4d..it's only going to get worse! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-cup-size-increase-when-you-were-pregnant#post-287702 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 16:49:46 +0000 photojane 287702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i'm not quite 18 weeks yet, and they've already gotten noticeably bigger! i'm definitely experiencing spillage, and i'll need a couple new bras soon. hubs comments on them almost daily.. haha :)</p> <p>ETA: i'm already a 36/38 D, so i'm super nervous about how big they'll get! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-cup-size-increase-when-you-were-pregnant#post-287696 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 16:22:52 +0000 PrincessBaby 287696@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Omg yes. I went from a 34C to a 36 D, and I'm on the verge of busting out. There is a DD in my future! Yikes!!! I hate photos of me bc I'm huge boobs and huge tummy now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-cup-size-increase-when-you-were-pregnant#post-287675 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 15:45:28 +0000 autumnlove 287675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went from a 36b to c last time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-cup-size-increase-when-you-were-pregnant#post-287671 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 15:36:14 +0000 sorrycharlie 287671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>mine haven't at all! DH actually asked me to ask my OB about it because that was a "perk" he was anticipating. they feel heavier (almost 38 weeks) but not worthy of a bigger bra, yet.</p> <p>my ribs, on the other hand, have definitely expanded. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-cup-size-increase-when-you-were-pregnant#post-287653 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 14:59:48 +0000 calsmom 287653@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine did, but they shrunk afterwards when normally they are supposed to get bigger? I was happy they didn't get bigger after he was born. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-cup-size-increase-when-you-were-pregnant#post-287650 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 14:56:18 +0000 JessicaMcB 287650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Started 38D, at nearly 35 weeks I'm still a 38D.

I might have been wearing the wrong bra size to begin with tho...not sure. Anyway they got bigger and now I'm thinking I need to go up a band size since my rib cage seems to have expanded. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-cup-size-increase-when-you-were-pregnant#post-285342 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 21:54:13 +0000 Ree723 285342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! And I'm so sad about it - I hate having big boobs. I went from a 34B (a small B) to a full 36DD. I hate it, hate it, hate it, but it looks like I'm stuck with it until I stop bf'ing. Sigh. I really hope they go back to a B, don't really care if it's a 34 or a 36, but I want to be a B again! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-cup-size-increase-when-you-were-pregnant#post-285337 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 21:49:50 +0000 Minnie_Girl 285337@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hellobeeboston: Yes! I always shop for bras on the web because stores don't carry that size.

If your band size increased and your cup size stayed the same, the ladies did get bigger, even if they're *technically* the same cup size! :) </p> <p>I'm 28w and am still a 30E. Thank goodness, lol. I was pretty worried I'd tear through $60 bras every month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-cup-size-increase-when-you-were-pregnant#post-284905 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 19:28:14 +0000 oliviaoblivia 284905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was up two cup sizes by 10 weeks and I think I now need to go up a band size at almost 23 weeks. 36C to 38DD. Will they go back to normal? I just packed up all of my pretty lingerie last weekend. I really hope to wear it again some day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-cup-size-increase-when-you-were-pregnant#post-284812 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 19:09:57 +0000 emcoco 284812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not pregnant yet, but I'm terrified of this! I'm already a 34g to begin with and I can't imagine getting any larger.</p> <p>I remember my sister telling me how when she was pregnant she went up in size, bought a new bra, and totally broke the underwire in that bra within like a week, because they just. kept. growing! The store she bought it from was really nice and when she came back for a new one they just let her "trade" it in rather than having to buy again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-cup-size-increase-when-you-were-pregnant#post-284784 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 19:03:43 +0000 mediagirl 284784@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got much wider - I went from a 36 to a 40 but my cup size stayed the same. I went back to 36 but now my cup size is a D instead of a small B! Yippee! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-cup-size-increase-when-you-were-pregnant#post-284779 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 19:02:00 +0000 Rubies 284779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went from 34B to 38C. Now, I'm still a 38, but back to a B. </p>
