Did you experience an increase in cup size after the birth of your second child?

With my first pregnancy I went from a C to a D during pregnancy and then a DD for over a year postpartum. I'm currently 22 weeks and still nursing baby #1 and already back to a DD... does this mean that it's likely that I'm going to go up an additional cup size after the birth and need larger nursing bras?

Mine of course increased in size during pregnancy with each child and then again after the birth when my milk comes in. Once I am 2ys out even with nursing they aren't as big as right after the milk comes in but they have gone from a C to a D to a E. I don't know if they will go down as i have been pg or bfing for 4 1/2yrs straight but they didn't at all after I quit nursing my first so kinda think that will be the same this time. I want my size C back lol.

Mine got HUGE during the first few months I was pregnant with my first, and they have stayed that size. They didn't really get any bigger after either birth or during my second pregnancy. Of course, there have been times in the early postpartum days where they would become engorged because it had been three hours instead of two since the last feeding, but I would nurse and they'd go back down. I certainly didn't need a new bra for that.

I don't remember exactly how it all worked out, but I was a C-cup before getting pregnant, D-cup by the end of my first pg and now I'm a DD so I feel like my boobs have just kept expanding... but I've been pg and/or nursing for eight years so I guess that'll do it...
