    Question Is it worth keeping my pre pg bras?

    I'm having a massive clean out and just wondering if it is worth keeping my pre pg bras in the off chance I'll fit into them again.....

    I was a B cup pre pg and now I am almost in DD's....

    Will I go back to being a B after I finish breast feeding or should I just throw em out and start again later?

    Personally I kept mine and fitted back into them no worries. But I didn't BF for very long.

    Bras are expensive though so I'd keep them at least for a while and see how you go. You can always chuck em later or there's a link somewhere on BB for a charity that you can donate them to.

    Even though they will take up space, I would keep them until 6 weeks after you finish breast feeding. You might fit into them. Personally I ended up shrinking smaller than before I was pregnant (doh!) so had to get rid of all mine.

    So my advice: pack them away but don't get rid of them yet.

    I would keep them. I am usually a B as well and went up to a D while breast feeding but I am back into my old bras once again now I am no longer feeding.

    Dee I'd keep them - your breasts may change shape, or in my sad case shrink, but it is better to keep them JIC and not have to spend all of that money again. I packed all of mine away with my pre-pg clothes so they weren't even there for me to miss not wearing.

    Depends on how long you're going to bf - I had a look at some of mine recently and the elastic has perished!

    i kept mine and would now be lucky to fit my left nipple in one! But like others say they don't come cheap so might as well keep them and see.

    I've kept mine, I was a C pre pregnancy and now a D, I've been either pregnant or breastfeeding (or both!) since July 2006 so haven't actually worn them yet again
