My breasts have gone up so much already and im not even in second trimester yet. They feel heavy and sore too. Just curious whats actually causing this, anyone know?
I felt so sore in the first months, even touching hurt. Nobody warned me they'd grow this fast. Apparently it's all part of getting ready for milk, which made me feel better about it.
Ha mine went up two sizes and I was like finally, free upgrade! But jokes apart it's just hormones building milk supply. Get comfy bras, the tenderness is real.
My doctor said it's the hormones, estrogen and progesterone, prepping the body for breastfeeding. The milk ducts and tissue grow and blood flow increases. Totally expected, she said it can keep changing through the pregnancy.
It's your body getting ready to feed the baby, that's all. Mine grew a lot and felt heavy and tender. A good soft maternity bra without wire really helped me, you might want a size or two up.
