More than likely its either swelling, water retention, or the measuring. I'm sure if everyone measured 3 different times in one day, their measurments would change too. 1 cm isn't much of a difference, 3 is pretty significant. Honestly, I wouldn't even count the first 2 measurments. That could be something as simple as the tape measure being just a tiny bit higher up on your back while measuring, or nipples being hard one time and not the other, or squishing the nips one time and not the other having no air in the lungs one time and the lungs being half full the other, or anything like that while measuring.
I'd just pick a certain time of day to designate for the measuring (like as soon as you wake up or right before you go to bed), make sure to measure the exact same way each time (nips not hard, breathe all the way out, make sure the tape is hitting the same spot on your back, ect) to keep it accurate, and only measure once a week or once every 2 weeks.
If you're getting too much salt in your diet and not enough water, you'll retain water just like that. Just make sure you drink enough water to pee pale yellow or clear. Some foods and supplements may change the color of your urine temporarily. I noticed that the first pee or 2 after I take MSM, it turns my urine a bright yellow. Typically they say to drink 1/2 your body weight in ounces per day (120 pounds = 60 ounces per day), but if you take supplements, herbs, protein, workout, ect, you need to drink 1 ounce per pound of body weight of water a day (120 lbs = 120 ounces of water)
