growing boobs--hate them

Anonymous
Anyone else think that their new larger breasts couldn't be more annoying. I typically only have a 34B and really enjoy having a chest that is on the smaller side. This is my second preg and the thought that including breastfeeding my chest will be like this for another year or so is daunting. I can deal with morning sickness, I can deal with constipation but they large tatas kill me! Anyone else?

Yes, but I think I would have liked it had I started where you did. I started at a 34D and loved my breasts. Now, I'm a 38DDD and hate them!

Sorry, can't relate, especially since this is my second pregnancy and my boobs were so deflated after my first. I even thought of taking pictures so I can show them to a plastic surgeon one day.

My usually 36Ds are became Gs through my pregs and nursing. Sigh. My daughter is 9m and will wean by 12m, so hopefully they will go back down, as they did after my first child. Every time I see a pic of myself, no matter if everything else about it is great, all I can think is "damn!!!! those are some HUGE boobs!!!!!!

I'm with you OP. I was a lovely C cup prior to pregnancy. The last bra I bought, third trimester, was a DD and now I am nursing and have gotten way huger. I have to get fitted for nursing bras soon and am terrified to find out how far into the alphabet I've ventured. And, it is so hard to find clothing that fits! Things that fit in the chest, are way too big on me everywhere else. I really hope once I wean that I return to my old size.

34B here - I enjoyed my slightly larger chest for awhile, but am now 9mo pp and glad to have the small ones back. I no longer envy larger-chested women - they just got in my way!

UGH, this makes me nervous. I'm 6 months preggos and have moved from a 34C to a 36C, but I'm scared of what's to come!

I'm usually somewhere between a 36D and 38DD, depending on the bra, and last winter, I totally revamped my lingerie with expensive, high-quality, supportive and pretty bras.

At 6 months, it's painful to watch most of those join my pre-pregger clothes in storage. I am holding on to the largest with extenders, but it's all stop-gap measures at this point.

I'm afraid of buying new bras, because I have no idea how big these puppies are going to get. (Gs?!? I didn't even know the letters went that high!)

OP here, after bf my first I returned to my small size and they looked like deflating water balloons, even that was better than the big boobs. Mine apparently were NOTHING compared to the giant cans some people get.

When not pregnant, I am a 30DD. It sucks, so I really feel for all you ladies who are starting to feel like porn stars disguised as moms (sounds like a really bad comedy). For all you reading the lamentations and panicking, not everyone gets super huge. I was so thankful that my boobs decided that their normal ridiculous size was good enough for breast feeding, too.

For those of you coveting a post-kids breast reduction to get the girls back in shape, I am right there with you. A nice, perky C cup sounds great to me.

Thank you so much for sharing this! I'm a 30 DD too and early on in my pregnancy. It's nice to know that there's a possibility that I might not end up in the middle of the alphabet Only time will tell. Either way...looking forward to my breast reduction after I'm done with kids as well--it will be well earned by that point considering I've been carrying these things around since I was 17!

I'm a 34B and I'm 26 weeks and my boobs haven't grown at all! I was totally expexting some new boobage out of this pregnancy by this point. I guess not everyone gets a visit from the boobie fairy during pregnancy.

This may be a stupid question but considering I started out as a B and am headed towards a small D I won't be going any farther. Do the letters just keep going like all the way to Z?

I have gone from 32/34B to 34/36DDD. I don't mind (it's different, not awful) but my DH isn't a "boob guy" and he wants them back to normal!! When I told him bfing might make them bigger he was in total shock. I am 5'1 so I look like walking boobs!
