Roulette Girl

This may be inappropriate, considering that a lot of my male friends read this thing. But I need a girl's opinion, and not just friends here, so any woman's observation would be great:
My breasts are huge. I'm like bursting out of my B-cups. I seriously think I'm pushing a C-cup here. And the sudden gain in my chest is not due to the fact that I'm gaining weight or something, because quite the opposite is happening. I'm shrinking actually. I've been a size 7 for about 3 years, and I'm starting to be able to fit in my size 5 pants again, and I have two pairs of size 3 shorts that also fit quite nicely. So I'm definitely not gaining weight. But my boobs are scarily big. I've been noticing this, strangely, ever since I got fired from Aero Film (about 3 weeks ago--oh yeah, did I tell anyone that they fired me earlier than 2/11? Yeah, I trained the new chick on a Monday and I went home, and they called me that night saying that I didn't have come back, I still got paid for the week, which was awesome).
But the fact remains: My breasts are huge. And it's starting to freak me out.
Has this happened to anyone else? Sudden increase in breast size, I mean. I realize that breasts can get tender when Flo comes to town... But I've never experienced them getting bigger.
Other good news: I recently went off sleeping pills (but only since last Wednesday). I wonder, if among other things, hindering the potentional of breast size was a side effect. That seems like a weird one, and besides I've been noticing the steady change for a few weeks.
Ever since Wednesday, though, my energy and happiness has increased exponentially. I am not as serious or as grave anymore, which is such a relief. It's like I'm my old self from the year 2000 (In the Year 2000!--if no one watches Conesy, that joke was just lost).
Anyway... please comment. I am actually scared that I may have some sort of thyroid problem or something. I don't know. My period has been really erratic since we moved to California as well. It hasn't been consistent since last June, and consistent is not the best way to describe it, but I don't think gory details are appropriate. No one wants to read that... and I don't want to type it. So we'll leave it at that.

A friend of mine once had a problem where the size of her breasts fluctuated wildly. When she was at school, she was sporting an A-cup, but when she went on breaks or summer vacation, they'd plump up into the C-range. As soon as she got back into the school routine, though, they'd start to go back to A. Her weight or waistline didn't change, either. I wonder if it could be stress-related?
Or maybe there's a girl-part aspect to it she didn't tell me about... I dunno.

As scary as this may sound, you might be pregnant. Most women in their first trimester will gain a size or two from insane hormonal changes.
There are other things it might be, like a breast abscess, but that wouldn't happen in both at the same time unless something really serious is wrong.
Then again, you might just be a girl who carries extra weight in her booblies. I'm not one of those people. Extra weight on me tends to hang out around my hips, ass and thighs :-(. If you've been losing weight and can fit into your smaller clothes again, it's possible you're just losing the weight in the rest of your body before you lose the weight in your breasts.
Are your mom, grandmother and aunt big-breasted women? It could be hereditary too. The women in your family just might do that at your age. (I think that's another hormone thing.)
In any case, I don't know if it should be anything to be worried about, unless they hurt or continue to grow to gigantic proportions.
You also might want to check out that pregnancy thing too, just in case.

First: My Nana is big-breasted. She got her period when she was 9 years old at the orphanage. The nuns beat her because they thought she was a slut--at 9 years old! *sigh* My mother and my Aunt do not have big breasts. Well, my mom has big breasts right now because when she gains weight, she carries it all over and thus, her breasts get bigger, which is normal. My Aunt, whom everyone said my body was a lot more similar to than my mother, does not have big breasts. Although there is a family story that when she ran off and moved ot Hawaii when she was 19 and went on birth control, her boobs sprouted almost out of control, and everyone has a good laugh thinking about such a tiny woman with like double-Ds.
I, myself, am not on birth control, or else I would just chalk the increased breast size as a side effect. And I don't know about the whole pregnancy thing. I mean, wouldn't I have more symptoms than an increasing breast size? Besides, we use condoms. Every time. No matter what.
I'm sure everyone is so happy to know that now.

Well, if you're sure you're not pregnant :-), then I would guess it's the change in your medicine. Either that or large breasts skip a generation in your family.

Condoms are only 97-99.7% effective. So I guess the real question is, have you and your hubby been going at it like bunny rabbits? If so, the statistics might catch up to you, and you might find a bun in the oven.
