    Question Sweaty boobs

    Hi

    Is anyone else experiencing this issue - I am finding (and have done so for last number of months) that underneath my boobs has become quite sweaty and itchy and a little bit red. I had put it down to their increased size and presumably increased blood flow - was a D to start off with and am now an E. It not painful just a bit uncomfortable.

    Has anyone else experienced this and if so have they used anything that makes it go away?

    Hope it not TMI

    Thanks

    right there with you.
    I have bad sweat rash just under my boobs, and also in my cleavage. Red pimply rash, bad at times, then not so bad at other times.

    I find it comes and goes without treatment, so i havent worried too much.

    I am a D at the moment. My boobs have grown a little, but im still fitting into my normal bras i had pre-pregnancy.

    I dont know a chef that doesnt swear by this stuff - boobs, thighs...wherever! lol Will stop the red chaffing and the itching

    I have G cups and it is the only thing that works for me

    Thanks .... am curious now what is 3B cream normally used for ...... ? I am sure it wasn't invented for sweaty boobs Just wondering if i need to be embarassed when going to the chemist or not. IE Pick one I'll never have to to into again ha ha.

    I have to say its amazing the number of things people even your closest friends don't tell you about being pregnant ............ I guess things like this (and increased discharge for example) are just a bit TMI !!!!

    Yep - I am also with you on the sweaty boobs. It probably started around 2 months ago for me. I now have really dark lines underneath & in between my breasts. I have been using a powder but will try & get some of this cream. The powder has definitely helped with the sweating but the lines are still there. I was 10DD before getting pregnant & am now a 12G I know what you mean about the things you only find out once your actually pregnant, not that I thought I knew much before hand. Thanks for asking about this Meadsie.

    While not pleasant for everyone is good to hear that I am not alone.

    Will try to cream and let you know how I go - thanks Limeslice for the suggestion.

    Guess one good thing about this colder weather is we are sweating less - would hate to think what it would be like to have a summer baby !!!!
