Any mama who has breastfed may know what I am talking about. I have always been on the less than full side when it comes to my cup size {small B cup to be exact}. And, I really didn't care that much about having less than impressive boobies. But then, I got preggers, had a babe, and a day later my milk came in. It hurt like hell, but after the pain subsided.....I realized my cups
runneth over in just one night!!! It was like having a free boob job. I have to be honest I was pretty excited with the consequence of breastfeeding. I never ever thought I would have the honor of putting on a C cup!!!!!!!!!! It was pure bliss. Then the baby grew and needed something other than breastmilk to fill her hungry tummy.
Hello solids bye bye cleavage. What a sad day.
But lucky me I got pregnant again. And sure enough a day after baby was born my milk arrived, and so did my C cup. HOORAY!!! But once again baby grew, and my full bust slowly dwindled down to.......well lets just say they aren't C cups anymore. Since I am being totally honest. I don't even know what size I am. I have been avoiding that trip to Victoria Secrets to have the pink measuring tape wrapped around my barely there bust. NO. I do not want to do it. It definitely won't be a C or a B.....hey I will probably get lucky if I get an A. Yes ladies I have still been wearing my too big for me bras.....because I am dreading that day to walk into Vic's Secret, and them direct to the training bra section in Walmart.
Please someone comment and tell me you've had the same experience??!!!
So I don't feel so alone in small boobieland.
show some love. just 2 clicks.super simple thanks =)
i've not been there yet... we're starting solids this weekend - woohoo!!!!! we'll see what happens to the boobs....... :D
ReplyDeletep.s. voted for you on tbb!
Lol good luck!!! hopefully they stay the same =))) and thank you!!! I voted for you last night after I did my mommeyhood memo ;)
ReplyDeleteI am SO there. My impressive boob job on my pre-baby A's got less and less with each child I'm afraid to say. And now, after baby #4, even though she's not fully weaned yet (still nursing at nap and bedtime) I am officially the size of a training bra. Wah! You would think that I could get SOME sort of trade off for going through labor 4 times. But nope. Nature is crueler than ever. *sniff*
ReplyDelete@planet pink- glad someone else knows what I am talking about....sad for you though lol=( that would be so wonderful if mother nature granted as a fuller bust for birthing babies and they actually stayed!!!
ReplyDeleteI just weaned last week so I think they've gotten a bit smaller, and they certainly went down a bit over time - but I'm still in my mat bras (I think I'm just a bit bigger generally than pre-preg still).
ReplyDeleteI've always been a C though - so not in the same boat as you - though when I go running and have to strap those puppies down I often wish for a little less.
@mommycrat- I know the grass is always greener isn't it? lol
ReplyDeletehahahaha, this is the best blog so far! I'm glad I'm not the only one. After I weaned Ian I wore my too big for me bras til I got pregnant with Bailey, I was in some serious denial. Miss Bailey has blessed me with nice bubbies again, so until solids and weaning I am taking FULL advantage. Good luck at VS, or walmart ;)
ReplyDeleteHonestly Hilarious, only 'cause I KNOW exactly what you're talking about. I'm guilty of the lust for the larger bust (ooh, blog title there) only after I had Joss. Bigger boobs was AMAZING to one who's only had small (I was an A). But then I made the mistake of not focusing on both sides, and whoops, there went one while the other stayed... but at 4 months she had to be formula fed because of a protein allergy and there went the other, but instead of shrinking so nicely like the other, it drooped. I just beg my hubby not to die young, 'cause I know no other man would see under this shirt!!!
ReplyDelete@katie- Yay!!! Glad I am not the only out there that does the bra thing ;)!!!!
ReplyDelete@Jhen- Don't you hate it when the baby prefers one side I have had that happen before lol....and I love the blog title!! do it =)
I haven't been able to get pregnant yet but I have always been on the smaller side of a B. Looking forward to the day of enjoying a bigger bra size, even if its temporary :) lol
ReplyDelete@jenny- lol....its a great day!!!! =)
ReplyDeleteOh man. What a fantastic blog! I only wish I could say the same was happening to me. LOL How about after I wean baby Love I will blog about the size of my tata's NOT shrinking. =/ If you want I can donate...TO EVERY PERSON WHO COMMENTED! LOL =)
