    Sore boobies



    Currently 18 weeks pregnant and my boobs are still hurting so much and really heavy , and hurt to touch ! I only weaned my youngest after 2 and a bit yrs in the early weeks of pregnancy , but had no issues with pain or anything then , really been hurting since about 3 mths .

    Any suggestions or grin and bear it ?
    TIA

    I know your breasts will still grow during this pg but have you been properly fitted for a bra lately? It can make all the difference. I go to Myers and get fitted by the ladies there as I am a bit big (this mat bra is a 12F ) and they are just great (the ladies that is)!

    My breasts are tender now, not sore as such, but bigger and hotter than usual, like they are already generating milk.

    Hope it gets better for you soon.

    I agree with Rommy. Try a new bra. I had really tender boobs until about 18 weeks when I finally started wearing maternity bras and bingo, problem solved!

    I had sore bbs but found out it was a reaction to one of the fibres in my bras... never ever bothered me in pre-pg life but now irritates the life out of me.

    When you weaned your youngest... you didn't get mastitis (sp?) or something like that??
