My breasts swell before my period - not to change a cup size but to spill over a little, I guess, of my existing bras.
However it is also a sign of pregnancy to have your breasts swell. It's common to feel like your period is coming, but with extra symptoms that are unusual, like feeling feverish or having a slight cold, or headache, nausea, or your body otherwise feeling 'different'. It sounds like you should take a home pregnancy test if you have reason to think you could be pregnant, and if you're not, get yourself on the pill and start keeping condoms near by as it is not the kind of thing you want to go through. You might think it's embarassing or too hard or too expensive, but nothing compares with the emotional effect or even cost of pregnancy.
