Breast growth at age 24?

My boobs started developing early (age 10) and never experienced a drastic growth spurt...they just grew steadily by about 1/4/-1/2 a cup size every year. I probably started as a 28AA, and then each year they progressed slightly (although it's hard to tell since I was wearing the wrong size for my frame, but by 17 they were 34C, and in college I started wearing a 34D or 32DD- but I took that primarily to mean that birth control had made them grow).

Anyway, I'm 24 now and for the past several years I've alternated between 30DD and 30E (I should be taking a 28 band but 30 is doable, so I just used 30's for convenience). However they seem to be steadily, slowly growing again. They hurt more, they're super sensitive to ANY kind of touch, and my "big" 30E Affinitas bra (which always felt bigger than my other 30Es) is now almost too small for me....I haven't measured myself yet (lost my tape measure) but I have reason to believe I'm growing again. I also recently tried on some bras at Nordstrom's just to see where I am..and a 32G Chantelle bra fit me (Minus the band), as well as several 30Fs from Freya, which run big...32DDs are now strictly too small, and they used to be my go-to "common" size.

I'm very happy with the growth, but is it even possible to have natural breast growth at my age, or should I chalk it up to water retention because of birth control? Will they keep growing? My mom always had proportional, slightly-big-for-her-frame breasts, but each of my grandmothers were at the extremes- one had A-cups, the other had like enormous, hulking HUMONGOUS boobs but she was also obese, so...I have no idea where I'm destined.
