Breasts not growing

[1sttime]

I'm 31 weeks and my breasts have only got marginally bigger, was a dd before and now nearly an e, am worried that they're not going to be ready for breast feeding and am slightly paranoid as everyone seems to talk about how big theirs got. Anyone else experiencing this?

Everybody is different and some people notice a vast increase and some hardly at all. The most noticeable time is after you give birth. Your boobs become very full, hard and you can feel the wiggly milk ducts underneath the skin - it feels very odd! Your boobs will absolutely be ready for brestfeeding xx

Thanks so much, always seem to be worrying about something! Need to learn to relax and be thankful

Mine never grew until after both my children were born and I am only small chested so never had to change bra size. I bought nursing bras in my own size as I was planning on breast feeding my first but due to complications with him being tongue tied I ended up bottle feeding a week later.

I am pregnant with my 3rd and I must admit I have noticed them getting a little bigger but again not big enough to warrant a new bra and I am gonna try and give feeding myself another go.

Mine have bearly changed (thankfully as I'm a 30G normally!!) everyone is different and bigger boobed peeps tend to not notice any size increase so much. X

With my 3 yo a boy! They grew right away , were heavy and painfully, b4 I missed my period I knew I was pregnant as I just felt it in my boobs! Went from a b - e ! I breast fed 4 weeks by myself and another 4 weeks breast and bottle untill he preferred bottle. I Stayed at a c /d .

I'm currently 24 weeks with a girl and they have not grew at all ! and are not tender like they were with my son but it looks like I'm smuggling peanuts constantly and my nipples are so sensitive !

With my first two pregnancies i went from a -c when my milk came in and back down to a again. This time i went from a to c in the first 12 weeks and still growing at 19 weeks - quite painful breasts and nipples and i also have the 'smuggling peanuts' appearance! Just wondering when they will finally stop growing as it's getting expensive to keep buying new bras!

I'm 39+3 and nothing has happened to mine either, been really worried I won't be able to breast feed too but keep being told it will be fine and the milk will come in once baby is here.... Fingers crossed for both of us! X

Mine have got smaller for both pregnancies and then got bigger in the third trimester and subsequently when breast feeding (for my first-I assume same will happen with this one!). Although in all I still only went up one cup size. Some women don't get bigger at all whilst some get huge. Your body will sort itself out
