    Question Lump under DD2's nipple

    I discovered while feeding her, that DD2 (11months), has a small hard lump directly under her left nipple.

    It moves under the skin, is about the size of a Smartie and it is hard.

    Is this something to be concerned about? It isn't red, inflamed or giving her grief that I can tell.

    ETA: Just felt it again, it is probably fatter, rounder than a smartie...hmm

    Hun, I remember with one of my children who had a lump and the doctor said if the lump moves it is ok. I'm pretty sure it was a little fat deposit.

    Yep DD2 had one like that and it just went away after about a week.

    DD (9.5) has one too. Her breast buds are just developing. I am going to keep an eye on it...

    My DD2 had one when she was a few months old and at the time it coincided with a visit to our GP so I asked him about it and he said it was a small cyst in the breast tissue and it would resolve itself in a few weeks/months and it did so I wasn't worried after that.
