Haha, you of course, don't have to answer if you don't want to. I'm just interested to see how much (more) growth to expect and what everyone's experiences are! 
Also would be good to hear from Mum's who aren't preggers - did they stay as big as the biggest they ever got or did they reduce after birth/breastfeeding?? 
I used to be a 10C (although that wasn't properly fitted, just what I thought I was), and I went for a fitting last week (~18 weeks pregnant) and I'm a 12D. Geezus, I never, ever thought I'd be a D-cup

I was a 14D and am now a 16E. Alot of people don't realise they are bigger than they thought as they were never properly fitted. ------------- http://www.TickerFactory.com/weight-loss/wyI1oWn/">

I went from a 10A to a 12B and then down to a 12A when I stopped breastfeeding. Assume will be the same this time as again I'm a 12B again. -------------

I went from a 12C to a 12DD and then post breastfeeding went down to a 10DD (didn't lose anything in the cup after I stopped breastfeeding). I have to get my cup size refitted this time as I've filled out again so no idea what I'll go up to this time and whether I'll shrink back down or just stay big again (beats breast implants -------------

I started at 10A, up to 12B when bf but I came down to 12A when I had nearly weaned. (Probably that was because your lungs expand when you are pg.) At the start of this pg I was 12B and I am now a big 12C/small 14A. I doubt I'll get any bigger this time around. -------------  |

I was a 12B, at 16 wks went to get fitted and the lady looked at my chest and said "you're def not 12B anymore - more a C or even a D" DH was with me at the time and his eyes lit up like a Christmas tree!  So was in an early pregnancy bra size 12C, then after Emily was born and milk came in I went up to 12D nursing bras. Emily's now down to only morning BF and I'm hovering around 12C. I'm hoping they'll stay that way once she stops the BF altogether. -------------

Holy Moly! How does your little size 10 chest hold those? I was 10/12C, went up to 16C/D during pregnancy, now I'm 14C/D I'm breastfeeding. This is really interesting. I didn't know your number changed so much during pregnancy, I presumed it was just the cup size. -------------

Hehe, I was a 10B pre-preg. My 10B bras don't do up at the back anymore, so mum lent me her old 16Cs from after her breast-reduction (I don't take after her in that department!) and they fit me!!!! And they're really comfy  ------------- DD 4yrs DS 2yrs http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

With Daniel I was a 12F, went up to a 16G and slowly shrunk back down to a 12F and so I'm wondering if I'll end up a G cup again

You are like me...skinny ribs big boobs! I was a 10D & now am wearing a 10F. Will be interesting to see how much they go up after the birth. Last time I'm sure my rib cage expanded as well as I have 12's but they slide up my back this time. ------------- Kel http://lilypie.com">

I used to be 12A, and am currently sitting at 14B - will be interesting to see how much bigger they'll get when the baby gets here and I start breastfeeding!

I was 12B, went to 12D by 8 weeks, ended up 14E. Still there, and didn't go down once the milk came in and settled (even though everyone promised I would). At least my post-baby tummy seems a bit smaller in comparison to the boobs  (at least that's what I tell myself)------------- Mum to two wee boys |

I was a 12B - went to a 12DD/14D (depending on the bra) with Jake ... I had gone up a cup size in the first 8 weeks! After BFing I went back to a 12B/C (depending on the bra) so basically the same size but I was a few kgs heavier. This pregnancy they haven't really changed yet. So who knows what will happen this time. ------------- DS (5yrs) and DD (3yrs) |

I was a 10B pre-pregnancies and went to a 12C both times but have now shrunk down to a size 10A  seriously looking at an enhancement at some stage!------------- Sebastien 2 years old Olivier 3 3/4 years old |

14B - 14B here. Weird, eh. I'm wide-ribbed anyway, but babies push them out a little further still, just not enough to warrant anything more than changing which hooks I use. ------------- Andie |

I was a 12E/F pre-pregnancy and ended up in 14G by 30 weeks. 4 weeks into BF and I'm still wearing the same bras as I was during pregnancy, lucky the "maternity" bras I got were also nursing ones! I hope I do go back down a few sizes eventually. I've already told DH that once I've finished having kids I WILL be getting my boobs fixed.

I had 2 breast reductions first age 15 (was H) and second at 21 (was G cup). I had so much health probs due to them. after the last operation I was wearing A cup as a start now 7 years after I am F cup again. They keep getting bigger anyway so don't know what will happen at BF time, if I can ever breastfeed

Wow I am surprised to see what sort of size you all were and have gone to. I was a 12DD before getting preg (although I swear they aren't actually that big). They are already so much fuller so am doing the same size bra's but maternity ones- mostly for comfort.
I'm hoping for not too much growth as I'm a small person. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I was a 12D and have gone to a 12 DD/E so about a cup size bigger than my last pregnancy. My boobs did get bit bigger once my milk came in but not too much more thankgoodness! So I'm hoping i can fit into my maternity bras still. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

For me, I was a 12D at the beginning of my pregnancy.
At the end, it has gone up to 16F. So it varies between each person and how your body responds to pregnancy hormones. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Before pregnancy I was a 10 A, during pregnancy I was a 12 C, when my milk came in I became a 12E/14DD, now i'm back down to a much more comfortable 12 D. My partner loves the way my bobbs look, BUT can't touch them - he says "It's like playing with the food on somebody elses plate" !!!! ------------- http://www.babysfirstsite.com">

Hahahahahaha! I'm 7 weeks pregnant and I've gone from 10C to 10D already. Am I likely to get any bigger? I bloody hope not. They look great but god they are a pain. |

| Mine were 12D and have jumped to 14E at 16wks. I hope they stop soon! Though they make the rest of me look small in comparison! |

I went from 12C to 12DD, and I am still there!
Don't mind the size tooooooo much, but they are not perky like they used to be! |

Went up to a 12F a few weeks ago and was just thinking this morning how tight that feels in the cup so I will have to get refitted again. -------------
