Yes, it is very common. Try switching to comfortable maternity or sports bras for some relief.

Oh, totally! My breasts felt like they were holding two hot heavy bricks in the first trimester, even wind touching them hurt!

Yukti Muthukrishnan · Answer

Yes dear, it is very common as your body starts preparing for nursing early on. Wearing a soft, non-wired cotton bra really helped me manage the soreness.

Rani Rajagopalan · Answer

Yes, it is completely normal. Almost every pregnant woman experiences this in the early weeks.

Deepika Rawal · Answer

It's totally normal due to hormonal surges. I had intense soreness early on, but it gets better in the second trimester, so hang in there.

Haan, ye bilkul normal hai. Sharir me badlav aate hain na, isiliye thoda dard hota hai, pareshan mat ho.
