Contrary to popular belief, breast size waxes and wanes beyond puberty. For example, when women are pregnant, their breasts may increase a cup or more in size to accommodate breast milk. In addition, weight gain (especially water weight), can cause breasts to swell, as can hormonal imbalances and menstrual cycles. If your breasts feel larger, measure them to tell if your breasts are growing.
Instructions
1. Take off your shirt and your bra. In order to accurately measure breast growth, it is better if you are topless.
2. Find a measuring tape and take out about 30 to 40 inches of tape. Wrap the tape around your back, and make sure that the opposite ends meet in front of you.
3. Adjust the measuring tape so that it lies across your nipples. Pull the ends toward you so that they crisscross (so the tape end is to your right and the measuring end is to your left).
4. Read the measurement on the tape where the two sides meet at the fullest part of your chest. Mark down this measurement for future reference.
5. Repeat the process above after several weeks. Record the measurement and compare it against the first measurement.
