Ok let me just start off by saying, I do not and did not breastfeed!
My son is now 7 months, before pregnancy I was a 36B...As my belly got bigger, so did my boobs....they got up to a 38D :eek: Well I complained to my obgyn and she said "ahh dont stress they go away after you give birth, especially since your not goin to breastfeed" BOY O BOY was she WRONG :nono: , I still have my 38D boobs, I hate big boobs, they are a pain...Why didnt they go away? LOL...I was complainin the other day to hubby how I hate them, and he goes well when does the milk leave, I was like hun..its BEEN GONE! THESE ARE NOW MINE! he goes ALRIGHT!!!!!!! :rolleyes: typical man...IDK I dont like them though....Like my grandma always said "anything more then a handful is a waste" ;)

have you lost all your weight? cause if not, thats probably your problem. after all, boobs are mostly just fat.

Yea I went up a cup size, and I was a 38D to begin with....now I am a 36-38DD depending on the bra. It's a pain in the butt. None of my old bras fit correctly. And I own a lot of Victoria Secret's bra's too, and they aren't cheap :|
I am seriously thinking about a breast reduction. It makes me look fatter then I really am!!

Funny - one womans pain is another womans dream! LOL!! I didn't breast feed or anything - and my boobs are the same as before pregnancy (OK size)... they didn't really get bigger with pregnancy - a little but not a ton - and I wrapped 'em tight at the hospital after hte csection for two weeks straight in a binder and my milk never really came in!
I would LOVE to have another cup size - it would be Perfect! hee hee

I'm breastfeeding, but I heard that your boobs get smaller than pre pregnancy. I am hoping this is not true since I had about a hand full to begin with. LOL

I was told they get smaller after pregnancy and breastfeeding. But I was originally a 36c then with my first I went up to a 36 D and stayed that way. Now I'm pregnant again and I'm a 36DD! It's insane and I'm hoping they've reached their limit because if I have another baby and they go up again I'm going to go crazy.

I was a 36D pre-pregnancy. And I also had a lot of Victoria's Secret bras. Now I am a very saggy 36DD. When I was first pg they were growing faster then my belly. I talked to my Dr about the fact that I want a breast reduction/lift, and he said don't breastfeed. If you don't breastfeed they have a better chance of going back to pre-pregnancy size. It did not work. And losing weight has not made them get smaller. I HATE the way they look.

I did not breastfeed and I was a 34B before and not am a very full 34B or probably more like a 34C. I squeeze into my bras because they are Victorias Secret and they are too expensive to replace!

I have big boobs both now and PP. I also have a 1.5yr old. If you do not like them, try hitting the gym! :)

Sorry ladies...no sympathy here for the big boobs. My whole life I looked forward to boobs and while nursing, it was a dream come true to go from an A to a solid B :p Barely a week after I stopped nursing (7 mos pp) they shrunk even smaller than before :mad:

Ya, as I stated, I have big boobs, I know men love it! If your back does not, then go see your Dr, have a reduction...I believe the woman who posted this said she didnt lose all her weight, thats why I said that, honey!
PS did you know boobs as fat tissue?

I do believe that you've gotten bigger around; it doesn't sound like your actual cup size increased. More than a handful is a waste? Typical man? Wow.
