Small-chested ladies...
Has anybody not really grown much in the boobs? I started small (full A, small B) and let's just say my bras are still fitting just fine. I actually dont mind this too much but my concern is what do you do about maternity clothes? So far it looks like everything, even the XS, are made for much bigger boobs than mine. Do you just buy regular clothes (like tunics and empire waisted tops with room for a belly) so they fit in the chest? Or will they eventually fill out more (I'm 11 weeks)? From what I've read, most of the growing happens in the first trimester.

Re: Small-chested ladies...
i don't think the growing stops at the first-tri. i think one of the books said by the end you're usually 2 sizes up (also cause of width)  consider yourself lucky - you can prob wear normal cute tops. Empire tops seem to be in now

Re: Small-chested ladies...
I've always been small on top -- 32A cup or small B (occasionally a small 34) just like you said. I REALLY filled out in the second trimester, not the first. I had to buy a 36B the other day, which for me is amazing! (And there's plenty of time left!)
So, be prepared!

Same here. I filled out my bras, but I have not "overflowed them" yet.

Re: Small-chested ladies...
I wore my normal 36Bs until about 17-18 weeks. By then I was starting to feel uncomfortable- now I'm a 38C.

Re: Small-chested ladies...
I am also a small B. During my first pregnancy, I never got any bigger...not at all. So much for that pregnancy perk!  This time I seem to have gotten a bit fuller, but am still wearing my normal bras (34B) at 34 weeks and they're very comfortable, although maybe I fill them out a bit better
As far as clothes, I always wear a maternity shelf tank underneath my tops. Also, I don't know if you've actually tried on the clothes, but it's not as bad as you think--you'll fit.
Lastly, you're only 11 weeks, so there's still plenty of time to grow...as for me, I think it's over

Re: Small-chested ladies...
Oh thankfully I am not the only one dealing with my boobs not growing! I was going to start a post "When will my boobs catch up to my butt???"
They do feel tender still (20 weeks) and a little bit fuller (not much though). I actually have one maternity top that I wore to work that I learned the hard way to use a pin to keep the top closed. My boobs just haven't caught up to the rest of me yet....

Re: Small-chested ladies...
I think my boobs look smaller but probably b/c my belly is so big and sticks out so far. I was able to wear my regular bras throughout my pregnancy. I thought I might get a little extra, but I guess not.

Re: Small-chested ladies...
I was in my regular bras up until last week, when I finally felt them being too tight and a little overflow on the sides. It was definitely a gradual growth. At 26 weeks, I got new bras, up one cup and number size. I've been buying stretchy/fitted maternity tops and haven't really had a problem, but the flowy maternity tops are definitely big on me in the top, so I stick with the fitted tops for now.

I don't have small boobs, but I had the same experience as above. I can still wear my same bras. I love my sports bras, but that is just b/c I am a lazya$$ and they are comfy, but I can still wear my usual bras.

Re: Small-chested ladies...
I wouldn't say that I'm small - but I am between a B/C cup - and my boobs really didnt start growing where I needed a new bra until maybe around 20-24 weeks...

Yeah, this time around I started at 34B...I'm just now actually filling up the 36C [in my 30th week] I bought to be more comfy. They are getting tighter...so I will be buying something else soon.
With my first, I started off larger and they swelled beyond belief the whole 9 months. I was constantly buying new bras! Drove me nuts!
