    I found the nursing bras in debenhams good (much better than m&s)

    Not sure how big they go but I managed to get some in 38E

    I am starting to get bra envy...I'm STILL an A cup! Before I was pregnant I was only just an A cup, now I'm completely filling the cup but not big enough to be a B :( and my nipples have gotten bigger I'm going to look ridiculous if they don't grow properly before the baby comes lol.

    I got the same sort of thing from M&S to wear at night and now I wear them whenever I'm home as they are sooo comfy!

    I still try to force an underwired bra on myself if I'm going out as my bangers need support!

    I'd love to be able to buy smaller bras!
    I was measured at a 34F pre-pregnancy but the woman in mothercare measured me a 40DD, !!!!!!? :rotfl:

    I've had bad experiences of being measured too big on the back and too small on the cup - leads to saggy bras and lumpy boob outlines under tops! I'm a 34F usually but at the mo I've gone up to a 36G!
    Maybe try to get measured in a few places and see what the general consensus is?

    Been for my whooping cough jab today, which I'd heared was particularly stingy, so was pleasantly surprised when I felt nothing! The GP said it all depends on where in the muscle the injection goes and whether there are any nerves nearby, so she must have picked a good spot!

    Or am I getting mixed up with achey arm afterwards?

    Saw midwife, she didnt really say anything but im a bit concerned about my blood pressure. Last time I went was 87/58 and this time 90/45. I am starting to have quite a few dizzy episodes but all she said when I mentioned it was hmm yes it is quite low, try not to get up too quickly. What is everyone elses if you dont mind me asking? Wondering whether I should speak to GP or whether im worrying over nothing.

    Obvouisly everyone is differnert but just thought I'd say once you start producing milk and B/F they will get abit bigger.. so still hope even if they are still small near the end? :o

    Wikipedia puts you borderline hypotension...are you drinking enough water? I find if my blood pressure drops I need to drink a bit more to bump it up and take in some extra salt. But if you're worried, get your GP to give you a callback to put your mind at ease.

    Fingers crossed, I'm using sports bras instead of maternity though so that's a bonus :)

    Thanks, will probably just leave it for now then as midwife didnt seem too concerned. I do tend to be a bit of a hypochondriac!

    Mine was 120/75 last time I went - which I'll be honest, I have no idea what it means!
