hi cherishsed - I don't tend to get very sore boobs with preg. They hurt, but not much more than when AF is due. This time round I had a huge growth spurt and had to go buy new bras by around 9 - 10 weeks then they settled down. All pain went away. By half way through second tri I had to go out and buy another round of bras cos I'd had another growth spurt. Then, only a couple weeks ago, they have started hurting again, this time more than before but it's just my nipples. They're incredibly sensitive and really sore, I'm pleased that I have several padded bras cos that's the only way I can get comfort! Glad they make them padded in big cup sizes now cos I've gone up to an F!!
Knowing what's happened to you in the past, I'd probably see the doc just to set your mind at ease, after all, what do we pay them for? But yeah, my experience, the pain did subside and then come back this time several times. First two pregs I don't recall much pain but I do know that they grew a lot then as well. Oh, and the crampy feelings, I had them constantly right through frst tri and most of second tri but particularly bad through first tri.
ps. even when breast feeding I didn't have much pain, generally only if the baby slept longer and delayed a feed or if I got a blocked duct. I was very lucky not to have major probs with feeding as I had a friend get mastitis so severely she ended up in hospital and they were actually concerned for her life because the infection got so bad. Was quite scary. Never ever heard of anyone getting it so bad as her but everything went wrong with her preg and labour - she had a perfect baby though which goes to show that no matter how much trouble you have during preg, it doesn't mean you won't have that perfect baby.
twinsis - glad you don't forget us and I hope you have fun baking cookies. I posted the recipe on my facebook page cos a number of g/fs wanted it and now they're all drooling. DH has taken heaps to work so that he can share them around and brag. I have to make another batch on the weekend for a bbq so I don't mind losing them to his work mates! lol
