sorry Rant

[HelenJ]

Hi Ladies,

I am so sad. I am having major issues with my body, especially the breast part. I always hated to have big breasts and now to are getting even bigger.

pre pregnancy (before my first baby was born) I had 34C and I went from that to a 36E!!! (disgusting) now I am not even 4 weeks pregnant and I don't fit the 36E anymore, I am so scared it will be a 36F or even more.

I am only 5'3" so it looks completely ridicilousI am so annoyed by it, it makes me look so fat and since summer is coming I am scared to walk outside because everyone keeps staring at my watermelons.

Is there anyone who has the same problem? I also have difficulties putting on clothes because I need a medium size but for the breast part I need a size large (or with blouses an extra large), it doens't look nice at all.

sweetie your not 'fat' your pregnant

and its only going to get worse i am afraid

love your new curves and know that they are there for a reason - i am sure your boobies will reduce in time (i am hoping mine will!!!)

Hugs xx

Dont forget that a lot in the first few weeks is fluid retention, a bit like pre-menstrual symptoms - they will most probably settle down

I've gone up to a 36G hun so I know how you feel, I hate having big breasts, they just get in the way but they entertain the OH so hey ho. I'm sure they'll shrink back down if not once your body has settled then at least once you've had bubba.

Helen, I am quite small boob'd so I feel for anyone with big boobs even temporailiy.
My husband seems to love big boobs tho and is disapointed that this time they havn't grown like they did in january, ( I think due to me doing nothing then and lots exersize now, boobs always the first to go with exersize, rather then your thighs , bum etc!!)

when yo get to 12 weeks etc , I would treat yourselve to a couple of really nice fitting proper maternity tops, as they allow for the boobs more and yet you can get some that are still fitted around everywhere else. This should draw attention to you lovely growing bump and less about your boobs XX

Really feel for you, mine have gone to a D cup and I love them, but don't think I could cope with any bigger! Just remember they're there for a reason, and once you get a bump no-one will notice your boobs in comparison!
It'll all be worth it in the end, or this is what people keep telling me every time I moan about pregnancy things lol

Hi hun I have suffered from big boobs im a 32f normally and a size 12. Nothing has ever fitted me properly I struggle with getting my size because Ive a small back. Its the one thing that I am dreading is that they get even bigger and stay bigger I think id even contemplate getting a reduction if it looked that bad I hate them and always have since school. They are currently killing me and look swollen ive got a decent bra and have started sleeping in a comfy one thinking it will stp them drooping round my ankles as they were not pert to start with. Rant over but I completely understand how you feel. xxxxx

thank you so much ladies for your replies. I live in the Netherlands at the moment and people here look a lot different (tall, small breasts, more like guys actually). SO I really feel I stand out At the moment I am wearing underwire bras since the give the best support in my opinion but since my breasts are really senstive now it doens't feel nice. It is painfull (although the wire is not poking in my breast or anything). Yesterday one of my good friends came to visit and brought some bras for me to try on. (She has a bigger size since she is quite big and tall but at least I could have a look). They are from Hotmilk and they dont have the underwire. They also have 6 rows of hooks at the back which means you can still wear them while the tummy grows during pregnancy (very convenient). I tried them and they didn't give me saggy boops. I have ordered some online now since they are also for breastfeeding (don't know if I will succeed this time) but at least that is two things in one. And if I won't be able to breastfeed in the end then at least they look nice and not like most of the pregnancy/nursing bras who look like granny underwear in my opinion).

They also stretch so if my breasts will get bigger it is not a problem

Hope they will arrive soon so I don't have to wear those painfull bras anymore. \0/

Oh Helen I know exactly how you feel!! Mine have just grown to an H cup and I'm so disgusted with them. I know you said you live in the Netherlands but there's this great shop called Bravissimo (online) and they really do lovely bras. I was really uphappy with the bra I got recently but realised it a full cup rather than a balconnet (the full cup spreads them apart and make them look ultra big, balconnet pushes them up and makes them look a bit better). Anyway they really do lovely bras in this shop, very pretty!!!! I'm glad your friend has found you ones that you are happy with now x

I went form a 34c to a 38DD when i was pregnant with my three boys, this time I've gone from 32b before the pregnancy to a 36D already i have no tops that fit properly and no bras apart from 1 of my old nursing bras lol
