...that my damn boobs would shrink! I know this probably SOUNDS funny...but, it is true...I just wish they would shrink already...but, I guess it's just not going to happen!
Everyone says your boobs go back to 'normal' after you have the baby, but in my case, it is not happening. It has been almost TWO YEARS....I have been losing weight, and normally, my boobs are the first place I lose it. This time, no such luck!
I just went bra shopping yesterday, and I have gone down 2 sizes in my back measurements, but have not gone down ANY in the cup size.
I just needed to VENT...

THANK GOODNESS I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE....
Julianne will be 14 months old on 3/5... wow!! and I have FINALLY started to shrink.
ok ..here is my personal info,..yikes what we girls share!
was a 36c...post delivery..during BFing went up to a 44DD!!!... now I am a 38D...
let me tell you in my experiences so far I cannot find PRETTY undies in this size. (too small can you believe it??? for anything that Lane Bryant carries in no underwire!)
...Im trying to find pretty and colorful...and underwire FREE in this size...and I am not getting too far too fast
as far as sizing ..for maternity bras or otherwise...I suggest the Hanes outlet store at the source Mall. Good prices ...$15-$17 for bras that run $25 and up...comfy WIDE straps..or gel straps...
I am not a VS fan..IMO their bras are for the skinny C and D cups out there. I am not one of those (unfortunetly)..so those skinny straps KILL me.
Any leads for pretty undies stores?

Claud - I would gladly take some over here if I could!! I was so proud of my perky little C cup boobs (didn't even need to wear a bra) before I was pg...then BAM! Hello D - pushing bigger cup!!! Once I weaned Ryan, my boobs not only shrank back to a C but they are so saggy now I cannot stand it!! The lift is what we need!!

Re: I wish, I wish...
How big in cup size do you all think you grew during pregnancy/and post during breast feeding?
I am a size 36D (large in the cups) and 5 feet and really am fearing this if I get pregnant some day. I dont want to get any larger in that area!
Best of luck ladies.

Well ... personally ... I was the same as you ... 36D (& I'm 5 feet too!) prepregnancy ... don't mean to worry you ... BUUUUUT ....
during my pregnancy ... (I was expanding at an alarming rate) ... jumped to 38D right away(and I mean right away!), I was at 40 by the end of my second tri ... by the end of my pregnancy I was in 42DD! Boy did I spend $$ on bras ! You definitely can't share those like you can clothes!!
Sadly, Phyl is right ... in this size there's nothing pretty. Right now I'm in 42DDD (OH, lord, let these babies shrink, soon!) I'm in nursing bras full time, so I bought some good ones at Miriams ... almost $40 each. Not cheap, but necessary. I'm crossing my fingers that there's an end in sight & afraid that if I get pg again soon, that I'll be tripping over them.
Please fm me if anyone knows of a way to donate some of this (I know there are some of you who would gladly give my girls a good home) ... I have quite an abundance & would gladly part with some!!

Thanks for sharing.
This is one of my fears of getting pregnant - I dont want bigger boobs! Every time I lose weight (and I work out pretty regularly), I never lose it in my chest. My DH thinks I'm blessed at my au naturel size of course but I dont want to get any bigger there.. Good luck - I wish you the best in getting back to your pre-preg size.
