If you get sore boobs before AF, did you get sore boobs before your BFP?

I know sore boobs are a sign of AF. I know they are a sign of a BFP. Just wondering if anyone got both?

I always get sore boobs before AF - anything from 12 to 3 days before it starts with feeling 'full' then then they get painful at the sides then all over to the point where if anyone so much as breathes near me I can feel it. So this is a clear sign of AF for me.

I've been TTC for over 2 years and always regard the boobs as a sign I am out. But also know they could be a sign of a BFP. So basically wondering whether if you get sore AF boobs did you also get sore BFP boobs?

Sorry for TMI. Thanks in advance.

I got sore boobs before bfp but I don't get them before af that's how I knew

Def a sign of AF for me, and was also the case with DD1 before I got the BFP. Didn’t have this symptom at all with DD2 though!

Thanks @Isadora2007 and @ReggeatonLente so it was a sign of AF and BFP? I am into my second year TTC, this month took clomid for the first time, used conceive plus, BD'd loads - so I have been really hopeful but somewhat clutching at straws I think. Confused

Yes. I also had cramps and bloating. I was as sure as anything my period would come any second, right until I turned over that positive test Grin

Yes. I definitely did. And with my first, when I had no reason to suspect I was pregnant my boobs just felt “different” and I caught sight of them and the thought “I’m pregnant” came right to mind.
