A question about big boobs?

I am wondering about maternity/nursing bras. I am 30 weeks and am starting to think about getting some maternity bras specifically for nursing. When is the best time to get measured and buy them. Should I wait until nearer the time, say 36 weeks or do you think I can get them now. How much bigger are my boobs going to get - i am a 36FF at the moment... aggghh! Also do they stay huge throughout the time you breastfeed? I plan to breast feed for at least 6mths.

Leave it as late as you can for nursing bras! A couple of days after birth they explode!!!! BUt you should get checked regularly for maternity bra's - sizes change fast.

No, they don't stay huge - they balance themselves out eventually.

I actually didn't buy a nursing bra until I fully established breastfeeding so I knew exactly how big my boobs got. Nursing bras also tend to run much bigger than standard bras. I am normally a 36 C so I got measured and got a 38 DD and it was HUGE on me.. My standard bra doesn't fit me at all.. but I got a 38 C nursing bra and it fits perfectly. Of course, this might depend on the brand of bra as well.. I recommend waiting until breastfeeding is fully established then go try on maternity bras because there is no way of knowing how its going to fit if you try buying a bra online or something. Oh and don't forget nursing pads! Breasts get quite leaky! Good luck and congratulations!

They shouldn't get much bigger now really, I went from a 36C to a 40D by around 7 months and never had a professional fitting as such I just bought 2 nursing bras from a store that felt comfortable to wear and easy to open! Your boobs do stay big usually but as the weeks pass they gradually reduce in size as you and your baby establish a routine, by 3 months they were normal size even though I was still breastfeeding my son morning and night.

In my opinion after i had my little girl my boobs got bigger and bigger.. and alot more painful. i actually remember crying they were that bad. I would say wait as long as you can to but your new ones as they will get bigger as you breast feed. Also i am pregnant now and have to buy new bras once a week and im only 21 weeks!! always wear the right size bra cause it can just be so painful and very uncomfortable if you dont. Hope everything goes well for you and the little one :)

when i had my daughter i bought bras online from JMS they were inexpensive and very large. they did not have wires. I want to say I was an F..? No i think i was a G. anyways, your breasts will be even larger when they are full of milk so it wont hurt to get the bra(s) a little big plus you'll want the support. Maybe get a size bigger than you are now? you only need one now. see how you like it once the baby is born and youll know if you should get a bigger one or smaller one :)

I would just buy 2-3 cheapies from target and then after the milk comes in get fitted
