I started off as a B and now at 30 weeks I'm edging into a DD.... I got stretch marks on them around weeks 21-23. I'm scared they'll grow even more, with 10 weeks to go! So, tell me.... which trimester caused the most growth for you?

First pregnancy it was the first trimester- I needed new bras by 8 weeks, it was crazy. Then they kept growing, but slower, until birth, then my milk came in and they got huge- that was the only point when I got stretch marks. But they settled down after a few weeks and the stretch marks on them completely faded.
This pregnancy it's just been gradual, I don't think the cup size changed all that much, but my ribs have expanded again.

With my first pregnancy my boobs didn't grow at all until my milk came in. But with this pregnancy they got HUGE right away (went from a D to an F) and then have stayed the same way through the pregnancy thus far (currently 36 weeks). I'm a little scared of what will happen when my milk comes in this time.

I went up a cup and band size in the first trimester. I feel like it happened overnight and I got some stretch marks. They grew again in the third trimester, but not as much. They got huge when my milk came in and then settled back to what they were during pregnancy after a couple days.

Mine grew a bit during pregnancy, 2nd tri, mostly my rib cage was wider. It was post baby that they really got huge.

Mine hardly grew at all during pregnancy, they were just a little fuller. They're a bit larger now that I'm nursing, but not huge.

It was right on the verge between 2nd and 3rd trimester (about 1-2 cup sizes) for me but they don't fully grow out of control until the milk comes in for me (another 2 cup sizes).

They have grown, but I'm scared to get sized. My starting size was a F (or 4D). I didn't notice the growth in the 1st Tri, although others did, but I definitely see it in the 2nd Tri.

You need another option for postpartum. Mine didn't grow at all while pregnant, but as soon as the baby was born and my milk came in, they went up a size!
