I'm 10 weeks postpartum (and 6 weeks since I stopped pumping) but my boobs haven't started returning to their normal size. I'm holding steady at a 34D (after maxing out at a 34DD).
How long did it take for your boobs to go back to normal after you stopped breastfeeding (if you did) or after the baby was born (if you exclusively formula fed)?
I'm trying to decide if it's worth getting more bras in my new cup size, or if I should hold out a little longer to see if they start heading back to their 34B glory.

I am 7 months post partum and my boobs are still big. I was a 34B but now I wear 36C. I still pump and breastfeed several times a day.
I miss my old boobs and nipples!

I only BF DS for 4 weeks and my boobs never went back to "normal". I had huge boobs prior to pregnant and they just kind of deflated but my cup size stayed the same. I'm pregnant with #2 and my breast have gotten huge this time and I'm hoping they shrink some but I highly doubt they will. I ended up loosing 60lbs after having DS and that made them alot smaller going from a DDD to a C. I did have flapjack boobs though. Now at 29+1 I am back to a DDD and I love how full they are but they are way to big. I plan to loose alot of weight again after LO is born then get a lift and possible implant depending on what size I end up at. I really just want to be a D.

With DS, I went straight to formula feeding and my boobs went back down to their normal size within 6 weeks. I was still leaking breastmilk, though, for an extra month or so.

@Mrs.B: & @Honeybee: Well between both of your feedback, I might be stuck with my giant boobs. Guess I'll invest in at least one new bra. Ugh.

I BF for 14m and never went back to before pregnancy size; was a 36C before getting pregnant and ended up a 36DD/38D.
