lump behind my 5 months old nipple

[emjoe]

whilst bathing my little girl i have felt a pea size lump behind her nipple, i have an appointment for the doctors but its not till tomorrow, has anyone else come across this, i am trying not to panic but hate any sort of lumps.

my daughters breasts are bigger than mine every time theres a growth spurt, sometimes it is an uneven swell from side to side.

LO 19 weeks ish

dont worry too much

thanks for replying, i hope its something as simple as that, its just cause its a lump it terrifies me...

Hi there - my daughter had exactly the same thing at about same age - a moveable pea sized lump behind one nipple. I can't remember what its called but its a kind of cyst that is hormonal in origin. I spoke to GP on phone and she was totally unconcerned and just said to put ibuprofen gel on it if it seemed red. It disappeared within a couple of weeks.

So definitely nothing to worry about :-)

Me, too, I remember dd having something similar.
I wouldn't worry.

went to the gp who said they would get an ultra sound done on it, would take a few weeks to come through, but the joys of having a sister who is a doctor took her straight upto her, she done the ultra sound and yes your bang on JASPERC163 a cyst nothing to worry about...... Thanks for all your reassurance though now off to tend to my sick 4 year old who is laid up on the sofa!!! never ending worry with my two!
