    [SIZE=12pt]When I was pregnant with my singletons, I remember my bust growing pretty large but I'm feeling like this time with the twins it's WAAAAAY larger than with my boys. The bras that I was wearing while nursing, at my biggest, with my singleton pregnancies all seem really small and uncomfortable and I'm just wondering if that is just my imagination or do the double hormones and fetuses make me even bustier?

    TIA

    After I nursed my dd1, my boobs went right back to their normal Bs. While nursing the twins, I was about a DD+. My boobs were gigantic. Now, it looks like the girls have sucked me empty....my poor deflated As. It's so sad.
    I hope that yours bounce right back.

    No, I went up to a C/D with my singelton and my twin pregnancies. I am kind of still nursing once a day and so I'm not getting any bigger yet with this pregnancy.

    Mine are bigger this time around (singleton) then they were with my previous pregnancies. But for me it's because I started out 20-30 pounds heavier. ;) I have noticed them growing a lot more this time though. When I got pregnant with my twins I was still nursing my DS so I didn't really notice much of a change until a couple days before I had them.

    I did feel like my boobs got bigger with the twins than my singleton. And I feel like they stayed a bit larger afterwards (the twins that is).

    Mine got the biggest with my first. They ended up their original size in terms of mass, but after my second my rib cage stayed wider so my cup size went down but my band size went up. They still look the same, they just *sound* smaller!

    Is it your band size or cup size that seems bigger? I definitely notice my band size needing to be 2-3 inches bigger around while I am PG with these twins. I can wear my regular bras as long as I use a band extender I got from the fabric store. My cup size seems to have stayed the same so far. I know it will expand once my milk comes in. fun fun!~

    [SIZE=12pt]It's actually both band size and cup size. I'm finding that all of my "big" bras, from my previous pregnancies are just fitting but I feel like I'm spilling out of them already and I'm not even to the halfway point. Needless to say DH thinks this is hardly a problem!! :p [/SIZE]

    I havent notcied a big difference in breast size yet. they changed dramitically when I started nursing though. Hormones do affect your breasts so it does make sence that extra hormones from 2 babies can change them.

    My breasts were size C when I got pregnant with both David and Emma. They didn't get bigger during or after pregnancy. When I was pregnant with the boys they grew to size D, then DD (or maybe even bigger) while I was nursing, and are now back to a D. :D
