so i've been struggling with ill-fitting bras for ages, & finally decided i was going to splurge & get a couple nice ones. that really fit. i'm sick to death of falling out of my bra every time i lean over.
so i took myself to a nice lingerie shop (not VS, but one that sells nursing bras & specialty stuff too) & got measured. & boy, was i ever off. i was much smaller in the chest size & much bigger in the cup size than i had thought. so much bigger it's a little scary, but the girls are MUCH more comfortable.
i do wish some one had warned me about the super drastic boob changes, pre-pregnancy. wouldn't have changed anything, but it would have been nice to be prepared. or not so blind-sided at least.
i started life 2 and a half years ago as a B cup. i could go bra-less. i loved my little boobs. & now, i'm an E. going bra-less is out of the question, & i'm still learning to love these new giant boobs. altho, as N pointed out to me, they are "functional" & there is beauty in that, just not the kind of beauty that comes in pretty lacy bras. se la vie, right?
Holy boobies is right!! They may go down a bit once Em is weaned though. My sis had giant (DD) cans her whole life. She had 2 kids and each time they got huge(r), but once they weaned, she was down to a barely B. Go figure. So there's some hope that your little B's will come back, much to N's dismay :)
ReplyDeletelol, at this point i don't know if i want them back, since i would rather have giant cans than saggy B's hanging around my belly button! :P
ReplyDeleteHaha! I was going to mention that they might be floppy dog ear boobies, but didn't want you to freak out! My poor sisters bippers sag like tube socks.
ReplyDeletesee, that's the kind of boobie horror story i'd like to avoid!
