The boobs are back!

[RachelGS]

My poor inflated-pancake boobs are getting their oomph back! They're not quite what they were before pregnancy and two and a half years of nursing, but they're definitely perking up and taking notice of the situation. They also feel full and dense for the first time in months and months and months. Welcome back, girls. I missed you.

Also, my toddler is still nursing with no end in sight, but lately she has been telling me that my milk tastes different. I knew this happened, but it's still a kick to hear her talk about it.

Congrats, you busty woman!

Glad your boobs are perking up!

I have the opposite problem...
I already wear a 36G and at almost 5 weeks my boobs are popping out of the sides and a little in front! How am I going to find a bra! How much bigger will they get????? I have had large boobs from a very young age and I plan on getting a reduction after I have children, but for now... Any recommendations on where to get supportive bras in lg. sizes (but in a 36)??? When should I get a new bra, I don't want to have to buy bigger ones every month or something. Thanks for any light you can shine!

Erin, you might want to just go ahead and look for maternity / nursing bras. You can find them in large sizes, and they're both supportive and stretchy.

Nursing bras that big in the 36 need to be special ordered, and I have found that places like Motherhood and such won't do it for you. So you might just have to look online and get some that way. Try and stay away from the underwires if you can. I know that is practically impossible, but I have found some. I feel for you.

I am a first time mama and in this week i've gone from a 34B to a 36D! Maybe this doesn't seem like a big jump to all you experts, but i cant believe it! Also they are aching and feel pretty warm to the touch. How often do you have to buy new bras? how big are they gonna get?

[RachelGS]

I think I bought new bras three times and then finally sprang for a maternity bra. But that's quite a jump! The tenderness does get better, though.

Isn't it great? I am loving the boobs. They almost make up for the morning sickness.
