    Question Pregnant with #2 but boobs not sore this time??

    Hi All

    Well we have recently discovered that we are expecting #2 We are so super excited!

    I'm not 100% sure of exactly how far along I am but it's between 5.5-6 weeks. Still very early...

    With DD1 I was very fortunate in that the only pregnancy symptom I had was sore boobs. And boy were they sore.... and big Almost immediately they started growing and very were very sore and tender for the first few months. It was nice reassurance that I was still preggers and all was going well.

    This time my boobs aren't sore at all. My nipples are more senstive perhaps and I get the odd little twinge in my boobs but nothing at all like last time. Has anyone else experienced this?

    Also, I bf for 14 months and I don't think my milk ever completely dried up, even now if I squeeze my nipple I can get a tiny amount of what looks like colostrum out (sorry if that's tmi). I wonder if this has anything to do with it? For example my boobs are still sort of in bf mode and don't need to undergo such drastic changes?

    I know it's still early and symptoms might suddenly hit like a ton of bricks soon but the lack of symptoms at the moment makes it hard for me to even believe that I am pregnant!! Please tell me you have had a similar experience

    Thanks

    My boobs were sooooo sore with my first pg, but with my second I hardly had any problems with them at all. Some days with my first I couldn't even stand to wear a bra they were that sore. It may need a little more time for you to feel anything, but I wouldn't be too worried about it if your boobs don't get sore.

    It's early days - they could be sore tomorrow!
    I'm nearly 16 weeks and haven't had sore boobs at all. They haven't gotten any bigger either! Try not to worry about it

    My boobs did not change at all when pregnant with #2. I BF DD1 up until she selfweaned at 8 months and 2 weeks later I found out I was pregnant. I was able to squeeze out a little milk throughout my 2nd pregnancy. I was so happy not to get sore boobs.

    My boobs have acted differently this pregnancy My nipples were super sensitive and quite sore again but the achiness in my boobs hasn't been anywhere near as frequent as it was in my first pregnancy. I've had similar symptoms as I had with DD but some symptoms have been stronger, some weaker and some started sooner and others later. No two pregnancies are the same

    I've managed to hand express a bit of colostrum too already. I was so damn curious I just had to try and was shocked that it's there already!
