Boobs and Bras
OK, so I'm about 9 weeks and I'm now totally busting out of my old bras. I'm a big chested girl to begin with, and now I feel like Pam Anderson. My questions are:
1) How far along were you when you had to invest in new bras?
2) Did you buy new ones at a maternity store or a regular store?
3) How many times did you have to upgrade?
4) Any tricks to making bras last longer (specific brands or types)?
Thanks!

Re: Boobs and Bras
GET MATERNITY BRAS. DO NOT EVEN WASTE YOUR TIME WITH NORMAL BRAS!!!!!! I am normally a 34D and went up to a 38E in maternity bras, I got mine at Mimi. They are so comfortable and the ONLY bras that can hold the weight. I bought mine at about 14 weeks, but I wish I had gotten them sooner.

Re: Boobs and Bras
I went up a cup size pretty early too. I bought regular bras though. Now at 33 weeks, I'm about to go up a size again.

Re: Boobs and Bras
Oh great
I'm already a 34 DD....I'm scared to think about how big these babies will get. I could knock someone out with them if I turn quickly.
I guess it's off to the maternity store.

Re: Boobs and Bras
I have gradually gone from a 36B (pre pregnancy) to a 40DD now  They pretty much stopped growing at about 28 weeks in my case but my bras are definitely tighter again the past week or so !
I bought regular bras in bigger sizes, not maternity or nursing..
Oh I meant to add that I almost immediately needed a cup size bigger in my 1st trimester.. and I think I upgraded 2-3x throughout the pregnancy.. I have bras in many diff. sizes now!

Re: Boobs and Bras
I suggest you buy them as you need them and not in advance. You enever know what your body is going to do, or how quickly your boobs may/may not grow after this point.

Re: Boobs and Bras
I went from a 34C to 36E. I delayed getting maternity/nursing bras since i knew my boobs would change so much. I wore sports bras and bra tops, and finally caved buying maternity bras around 30 something weeks. I wore them up until a couple weeks ago when i stopped Bf'ing. I haven't BF in about 2 weeks, and I am still a 36D. Can't wait to get back down again!

Re: Boobs and Bras
I got these from JCP around 5 months, but I should have gotten them sooner! I think they are so comfy I still wear them at 4 months post partum!

I'm a 38E in Mimi bras too!!  I was a 34 C- just kept going bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger!! I finally decided to give non-underwire ones a try and my life is better for it!
