OK, so I am completely thrown by this. With both pregnancies, I gained about the same weight, started at the same weight and ended around the same. Both times, I lost weight at about the same pace (a little more slowly the second time). My bust seems about the same size - but my old nursing tanks don't fit the same! I swore by my Glamourmom nursing tanks I wore every day for 18 months with DD1 - they were in size small. This time around, when I tried them on a couple of months post partum, I couldn't even get them over my shoulders, let alone my bust! So I bought a couple of size Medium and they fit OK. Did this happen to anyone else? And did your size change later on, when you were nursing a toddler rather than infant?
The reason I ask now is that I ran into a friend who is 7 months pregnant, and is about my size. We were talking about maternity/nursing wear, and I told her I have these GM tanks that are just gathering dust and she could have them if she wants. I have 4 of them in different colors, all in perfect shape. I was just getting them in a bag for her since she's stopping by tomorrow, and I decided to try one on. I could get it over my shoulders and over my bust - although it fit more tightly, which is not desirable for a nursing tank. Now I'm torn. Should I just give them to her tomorrow? Or is there any point hanging on to them in case I am indeed getting smaller and able to fit in these in a few months? (probably meaning that the size Ms will be too big by then) The tanks cost $35 new and these are in much nicer colors than the size Ms I bought, so I am tempted! But I feel like it would be rude to change my mind! Anyway, let me know what your experience was like! Thanks.
