I started as a 36 d and in second tri went up to h/I but then back down to full d in mid third tri... Milk came in and my right is h/I while left is e? I have a bravado that fits my right... Ugh. Otherwise I live in my lamaze sleeping nursing bras. I need to order some more!

I was a barely 34A before getting pregnant. Just got more full during the pregnancy. All the nursing bras I bought are either S or S/M. Combination of sleepers and two "wrap n snaps" from La Leche League that I love.
However was inspired to try on my old bras today and surprisingly they still fit but there's way more cleavage coming out the top.

I was a 36 C before pregnancy and towards the end a 38 DD. I haven't been measured since but i think I'm pretty much the same, maybe a bit larger.
I'm curious-those that are STM's, did your size go back to pre pregnancy after you were finished BFing? Trying to decide how realistic it is to think I will ever fit in my pretty bras again!

I think it depends on the person but the lactation consultant said that with each pregnancy you lay down more breast tissue, this was after dh asked if my nipples would go back in size, they got really big after nursing ds 1 and dh was wondering if that would affect ds2's ability to nurse but it hasn't. I really didn't have a long enough break from nursing to notice a difference, I weaned ds 3 months before giving birth.
What was your bra size before getting pregnant? A small B
What is it now? A large C maybe small D
Are you buying a bunch of new bras if your old ones don't fit? If not how are you dealing with the changes.
I got new nursing bras but that's it. I know they won't be like this forever so I don't want to invest to much! It's hard having such big boobs I am so not use to it!
With the boys my rib cage got larger so I went up a band size but not really a cup size. That's what happens when a little person stretches your rib cage from the inside.
This time I went up a cup size during pregnancy and now use xl nursing bras. They slip on so good for sleep and regular use. I got them on online clearance for like 8.99 so I bought 4.

After my 5 y/of DS it took about 5 or 6 months for my boobs to get to prepregnancy size. I wasn't able to breastfeed with him though because my milk never came in. We'll see what happens after this LO. If I stay a 34 C/D I won't complain. I'll just have to shell out some money for new bras.
