Don't wont to worry, HELP...what do you think?

As a nurse, I always advise anyone with any kind of chest pain to have it checked out regardless of their health or condition. Chest pain should not be ignored and always checked out.

And I agree - keep away from google until after you're checked out! My X used to hide my medical books when I was pregnant for the same reason - self diagnosing is so bad for our mental health!

Go to the hospital.
It is probably nothing but it could also be HELLP Syndrome

Do you have big boobs? I only ask (not cause I'm a weirdo ) cause particularly when I'm pregnant and my boobs get even bigger, I get some condition happening where the muscle wall behind the boobs seizes? It freaked me out when I was pg with #1 and had to go to emergency and get an ECG, but that's what it turned out to be, and my physio has since confirmed it. It's kind of an extra weight thing, and kind of an inactivity thing (cause it's not like you're jumping them around too much when pregnant, iykwim) And the pain is RIGHT under my boobs. But it's nothing serious - feels like a heart attack , but it's just muscular.

But to be safe, get it checked out - at least you'll rest a bit easier x

Thanks guys, off to the hosp this morning...after some bacon & eggs lol! I'm sure it's nothing but woke up with some pain again this morn. Will keep you posted.
Becs_Bubs....ha,ha nothing weird about that, I did read some people have pain with big bb's but I'm only a B cup so nothing to write home about LOL!

All the best, Erin. Best to get the all-clear from someone.

After i had DD i kept getting sharp pains in the middle of my chest right where my bra was and they were VERY painful, they didn't ease and one day i started to hyperventilate from the pain.. turns out i had gallstones.. OUCH!
I seriously thought it's the kind of pain a heart attack would feel like.

They say a lot of pregnant women get it as they increase the amount of dairy they have, it might be something to look at. Might started out a low tolerable on and off pain but when a a stone got stuck.. OMG.
Hope it's nothing serious...

Erin- Glad to hear that you are going to get it checked,not trying to scare you but- my Best Friend had similar symptoms that she ignored and she had HELLP syndrome, it went undiagnosed and she ended up having 2 seizures, luckily for her she was at the end of her Pg and her DS was delivered by emergency c-sect under GA.

This is now why I warn anyone who is having weird symptoms to just keep getting it checked, it is usually nothing, but just in case it isnt, you need to get it looked at.

Fingers crossed for you that it is nothing serious, just weirdo pg symptoms.

I get some condition happening where the muscle wall behind the boobs seizes..........the pain is RIGHT under my boobs. But it's nothing serious - feels like a heart attack but it's just muscular.

I had this too during my pregnancy. It started around 7 months and the pain was horrendous. I mentioned it to my Dr several times but he always reassured me it was just muscular and would get better one the baby came. It did get better after the baby came but my DS is now 2 and it still bugs me on occasion if I bend the wrong way.

I would definitely get it checked out though to make sure it isn't anything serious. it's not a waste of time if you get to put your mind at ease.
