When you get pregnant your boobs get bigger, then you start breastfeeding and they get even bigger still.

'Great', some women say...
'Fantastic', their husbands grin...
'hmmmm', I was thinking...

What about those women, who, like me, already have large breasts?

Before I got pregnant I was a 32 F and went up to a G cup during my pregnancy. Most high street stores such as M & S, Mothercare and Boots don't make bras in these sizes but luckily larger department stores do, so I went along, got measured and bought myself a couple of enormous, unnattractive but practical and comfortable nursing bras a couple of weeks before my baby was due, like they tell you to.

Baby was born, milk came in and my bras no longer fit. The cups are way too small but the bras are much too big around the back thanks to the assisstant who measured me not taking the fact that my bump was going to disappear into account.

So yesterday I went down to John Lewis to get measured properly and get myself some more enormous, unnatractive but practical and comfortable nursing bras.

The assistant measured me and went to get a bra for me to try on... She came back with the biggest thing you've ever seen in your life, I looked at the label, 34 J, yes that says J! I didn't even know they did bras in that size...

I tried it on...

Too small!!! My boobs were still popping out the top and sides!

I told the assistant and she broke the bad news... that's as big as they get. None of the companies that make nursing bras have started making a K cup yet, there's just no demand for it...

Yes there is! I'm demanding it!
Surely I can't be the only woman in Britain who has a small frame (hence can't go bigger than 34) but huge boobs!?! There must be many women walking around wearing bras that are too small for them which when you're breastfeeding is neither c
omfortable nor good for your milk supply.

I bought the 34 J bra anyway, it's better than nothing, but if anyone knows of a place that makes bigger bras than that, let me know please!!

Shame on the bra companies for not catering for the women who really need their products the most, the ones with the biggest boobs!

Hi. I'm a 28 year old, good-looking, athletic, hunky, witty, fairly intelligent [Oxford DPhil] guy. Obviously, I can't project myself in a short list of adjectives, but I'm really quite modest and sincerely likeable/attractive. My desired partner is intelligent, pretty, great sense of humoured, genuine and very large-breasted. If anyone in the mainland (Wales, Scotland, England)who fits this description reads this and finds my profile initially attractive (I fully understand how abstract and anonymous these sort of profiles can sound), do email me on exet0626@hotmail.com I'd be most pleased to hear from you, and would enjoy the adventure of an internet date!!

Best wishes, Rods

You've probably found it now but www. amplebosom.com go up to cup size L. My wife was in the same position and had loads of trouble finding bras to fit her. She is also quite small but very big busted and went from 32HH before pregnancy to 34L. Luckily she found that site and so don't worry - You're not alone
