It is very common due to hormonal changes. Try wearing a soft, non-wired cotton bra for support, it is a very cheap and simple way to get relief.

I am trying to conceive and heard that breast pain is actually one of the very first signs. Hope you get some relief soon, take good care.

Breast tenderness is perfectly normal due to rising progesterone levels. But if you feel any unusual hard lumps or severe pain in only one side, please consult your doctor.

This is super common during the first trimester. Invest in a good seamless maternity bra to wear at work, it really saves you from discomfort during busy hours.

Ugh, those hormonal surges are no joke! I just console myself with a warm bowl of soup or my favorite snacks when the soreness gets too irritating.

Your body is beautifully preparing to nurture your little angel. Stay positive, apply a little warm coconut oil gently, and keep praying for a smooth pregnancy.
