I tried on the ones from before 24wks and the cups still fit, band still hurts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-or-how-many-times-did-your-bra-size-go-up-while-pregnant#post-1558828 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 10:27:05 +0000 chibee 1558828@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got new bras at around 16 weeks? I just went from a 32B to a 34B and they're comfortable so far, i can't imagine my boobs going up to a C cup, i'd be shocked! I'm at 21 weeks currently. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-or-how-many-times-did-your-bra-size-go-up-while-pregnant#post-1558739 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 10:07:53 +0000 mrsrain 1558739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At 17 weeks I went and got fitted for a new bra. I went from a 34GG to a 36 HH (leaving a little room for growth) :meh:<br /> I've always been big, but lately I just feel huge all over. At least my belly keeps things kinda proportional?</p> <p>At around 30 weeks I started noticing my bra was tight again. At 32 weeks I'm probably up to a 38 J. My midwives said to wait until 35 weeks to buy nursing bras, so I am just hanging out hoping not to get much bigger!</p> <p>@mrs. 64: I hear ya. Bras are so freakin' expensive! I am basically living in one bra right now, because I don't want to pay so much for more than one when there is no telling where I am going to end up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-or-how-many-times-did-your-bra-size-go-up-while-pregnant#post-1558195 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 08:27:47 +0000 Alivoo01 1558195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went up 1 band size and 1 cup size while preggo.</p> <p>While nursing, same band size as preggo, but up another cup or two. Two cups when my boobs are full with milk.</p> <p>@mrsjyw: oh man! I had tiny/non-existent boobs pre-pregnancy (34A), I can't imagine it being smaller than that post-nursing.... :meh: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-or-how-many-times-did-your-bra-size-go-up-while-pregnant#post-1558022 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 07:31:15 +0000 mrsjyw 1558022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>34c prepreg<br /> 34d preg<br /> 36dd post partum<br /> back down to 34d through 1 year of nursing<br /> now a 36b :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-or-how-many-times-did-your-bra-size-go-up-while-pregnant#post-1558016 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 07:27:54 +0000 spaniellove 1558016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In looking for a nursing bra I found this guide...it uses a 34B as an example, but I found the changes to be pretty spot on for me so far.<br /> <a href="http://www.bravadodesigns.com/shop/simple-guide-to-sizing" rel="nofollow">http://www.bravadodesigns.com/shop/simple-guide-to-sizing</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-or-how-many-times-did-your-bra-size-go-up-while-pregnant#post-1557942 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 06:45:42 +0000 Adira 1557942@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine didn't change at all during pregnancy.

I started as a 32C and I'm 21 weeks and still wearing those bras. The cups are full but they work just fine and I just look a bit more voluptuous than usual. I'm still waiting for this amazing breast growth everyone speaks of!! </p> <p>I have, however, been spared much boob soreness. My boobs KILL me before my period every month but haven't hurt even close to that much since my BFP--weirdly enough. I have, though, had (and continue to have) morning sickness from hell, so I guess you win some, you lose some! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-or-how-many-times-did-your-bra-size-go-up-while-pregnant#post-1557615 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 21:36:25 +0000 jape14 1557615@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Torchwood: I feel you - I'm 20 weeks and up two sizes from a C to a DD. I've been in denial that I'm up to a DD, but the Ds I bought around week 8 are now officially too small to wear, so I'll be bra shopping this weekend. I'm terrified for the next 20+ weeks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-or-how-many-times-did-your-bra-size-go-up-while-pregnant#post-1557575 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 20:50:37 +0000 snowjewelz 1557575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Sunshine: oo I hope so! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-or-how-many-times-did-your-bra-size-go-up-while-pregnant#post-1557560 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 20:38:05 +0000 matador84 1557560@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a lot wider and bigger with two kids so close.

I am really nervous about this because I started as a FF and bras are so expensive. I'm really hoping they don't get any bigger and are not completely out of control when I'm nursing. Wishful thinking I'm sure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-or-how-many-times-did-your-bra-size-go-up-while-pregnant#post-1557430 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 19:04:19 +0000 regberadaisy 1557430@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@spaniellove: haha not when you're barely a A to begin with like me. ;)<br /> I had boob soreness at the beginning.

Mine just got a little bit puffier! D was expecting porn star size, but I didn't go up really at all! Until my milk came in, and then when I was engorged they were upwards of close to a cup bigger, but got smaller once they were emptied! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-or-how-many-times-did-your-bra-size-go-up-while-pregnant#post-1557391 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 18:42:55 +0000 LovelyPlum 1557391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: yep, sad but true.

I was super hesitant because I really need the underwire support generally, but I :heart: :heart: :heart: my Cake nursing bras! I was even more skeptical because they do their sizing S/M/L/XL, which I am usually immediately turned off by. BUT, the large fits really well, and I pretty much live in them now. It was a very good investment! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-or-how-many-times-did-your-bra-size-go-up-while-pregnant#post-1557298 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 17:51:20 +0000 spaniellove 1557298@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LovelyPlum: I've been putting it off and figured I wouldn't need nursing bras for a while but actually that sounds really comfortable right now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-or-how-many-times-did-your-bra-size-go-up-while-pregnant#post-1557278 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 17:39:05 +0000 MrsScottish 1557278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am currently busting out of my 36 c at almost 11 weeks. I have not bit the bullet and gone for sizing. They are still fitting, I am just a bit .... Full. I have been wearing sports bras and my no underwire no padding bras which are still working for now. They are definitely much fuller though!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-or-how-many-times-did-your-bra-size-go-up-while-pregnant#post-1557275 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 17:37:39 +0000 Rocker2014 1557275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Snowjewelz: I feel you - I started at at DDD and am spilling out of everying I own :shocked: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-or-how-many-times-did-your-bra-size-go-up-while-pregnant#post-1557268 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 17:34:30 +0000 LovelyPlum 1557268@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought new bras around 10 weeks and again around 30 weeks. The good news is that they haven't gotten (much) bigger since then. The bad news is that I'm already at a 36 HH, so if my milk makes them much bigger, I am screwed.</p> <p>Are you getting nursing bras this time around? I got a few and they are so comfy! </p>
