    Second baby - boobs not as sore?

    With DD1 my boobs were so so so so sore by this stage, it was unreal. This time, it is very managable. I'm wondering if this is normal for a second pregnancy?

    completely normal, I think as they have have already gone throught he changes of pregnancy once. My boobs were hardly sore at all this time unless I bumped into something and then they were only slightly more sore than when I have AF

    I only had really sore boobs with my mmc angel. I didn't get them with either of the boys. I got shocking heartburn instead.

    Maybe you're having a boy

    My boobs are sore, but nowhere near as sore as with DD. With DD I couldn't even stand something brushing against them. I'd wake up in tears because DH accidently touched them while we were sleeping.

    Mine only really hurt because DD has a habit of accidently kicking, elbowing or headbutting them. lol.

    Good to know, thanks everyone. I still have the normal pg stretching feeling in my uterus, ms which really picked up today, very tired and that overall warmer feeling... so I am not worried, just curious . Certainly makes DTD more fun than last time.

    I was still b/f DS early in my second pregnancy and I didn't notice any changes in my boobs. I figured it was because they were already in use/had been used .

    first pg, I had to wear a bra to bed to keep my boobies as still as possible, because they were quite sore in the first half of the pg.

    this time, no pain whatsoever from that region.

    I had such shocking pain that I was really worried it would happen again when I was pg the second time, but nope, never ever had pain like that again with any of them. Thank god too I reckon!

    I wasn't sore with any of my pregnancies, but I got huge early on and had to buy new bras at 7 weeks last time, where this time I can still wear my normal ones! weird!
