Breastimonial: When did my boobs get so big?

Our writer doesn't remember a training-bra phase: one day her body just announced it, and suddenly she had big boobs, new attention and a whole new shopping list. Her story covers the awkwardness, the bra hunt and learning to love her curves. If you're growing fast, you're not alone.

Do you remember that growing stage? You know…when your body started to grow and all of a sudden you had boobs! Or do you remember at what age you started wearing a real bra and you left the underwear t-shirts behind? Or maybe you were in middle school when you started wearing a bra?

I don´t.

For me, it was like waking up one morning with the biggest boobies I had ever seen! Still being a girl, but with a woman’s body. The night before I was just a girl without boobs. Then the next morning I saw myself needing a bra. It felt weird, I even felt ashamed. I remembered asking my mom if it was possible to have a breast reduction surgery. At that time, I thought her answer was pretty odd and rude, but now I get it!

My mom said, “When you grow up, you can think about getting a breast reduction.”

Now that I’m grown up, I don’t want my boobs smaller. I’m happy and each day I´m becoming more and more proud for having big boobs.

Victoria Secret says I’m a 34DD but I still find it hard to accept it. When I have to look for bras or swim suits, secretly and quietly I go straight to the D sizes.

Maybe I´m not ashamed to be seen, I guess I’m just used to it by now. With my girlfriends and my family I was always the busty one. They genuinely are surprised when they see my gigantic bras and make jokes about my boob size.

“Ha! Both of my boobs can fit in one of your cups!”

“Oh, wow! My whole face fits in your cup!”

But that´s me! I´m proud of my giant bra cups and my big, beautiful boobs. Always walking with breasts out first!

Frequently asked questions

At what age do breasts stop growing?

Most breast development finishes by the late teens or early twenties, though weight, pregnancy and hormones can change size later.

Is it normal for breasts to grow quickly?

Growth speed varies a lot. Fast growth is common during puberty. Talk to a doctor about pain or very sudden changes.

How do I find a bra when I'm growing fast?

Get measured every few months and choose bras with stretch or adjustable bands while your size is changing.
