Around 5 weeks and the soreness is so bad i cant even sleep on my side. Itni jaldi ye start ho gaya, didnt expect. Why does this happen so early, anyone else feeling the same?
Actually, my doctor explained that progesterone and estrogen levels shoot up suddenly in early pregnancy, which makes the breast tissue swell and feel tender. My MIL suggested wearing comfortable sports bras, and honestly, that really saved me.
It is 100% normal. It's just hormonal surges and increased blood flow working together. Swap your regular bras for comfortable, wireless maternity bras immediately, and you will feel so much better.
I am trying to conceive and keep reading about early symptoms. I've heard breast pain can feel like a heavy, sore sensation, almost like periods but more intense. It's so amazing how early the body starts preparing.
Oh sweetie, I feel you so much! My breasts were so incredibly sore in the first trimester that even a soft touch felt like a bruise. It's completely normal, your body is doing a wonderful job preparing for your baby, so hold on.
I am currently in my 5th month, but I remember having crazy breast pain during weeks 6 to 10. It was so intense that sleeping on my stomach was impossible. Did everyone else's pain go away by the second trimester, or does it come back?
I'm planning for a pregnancy soon and curious about this too. Is the pain constant or does it come and go? I want to be mentally prepared for what to expect in those first few weeks.
My mother told me this is the first thing that changes when you are expecting. The hormones are preparing your body to feed the baby, so there's more blood flow. Wearing a soft, cotton bra without underwire helped me so much when I was resting at mummy's place.
I asked my hospital's lactation consultant about this during an early webinar, and she said it is just early duct development. They recommended cold compresses if the soreness gets too uncomfortable. Always ask your gynac if you feel any hard lumps or sharp pain though.
