Just wondering if anyone else is in a similar situation, Im only 8-10 weeks pregnant (not sure yet until dating scan) my 2nd pregnancy and my boobs have been so sore since a few weeks ago I know this is normal however before I was pregnant I went to doctors as I felt a lump on my boob im only 24 but was v worried, dr told me to take evening primrose oil and see if its hormone related, was checked a month later and the lump had reduced so she said it will be.
However now I can feel it again and its very sore, but my other boob does feel lumpy too im going to mention it to midwife but it must be because im pregnant has anyone else got the same problem with sore/lumpy boobs? Blush When I had ds I breastfed for a year could it be anything to do with that even though he's nearly 5 now? Confused

I had very painful boobs with dc2 had lumps in armpits too. Asked mw who said she hadn't heard of it. Didn't go to gp as a couple of weeks later they did settle down in later pregnancy. However when i returned home after the birth and my milk came in i had the same pains and lumps in my armpits again. They disappeared after feeding for a few more days. I do seem to get painful lumps come and go periodically i'm sure they are hormonal though i have never had them checked but do check wiht your mw.

I will do, I have had it checked with gp before and like I said they went down after taking evening primrose oil she said it happens to alot of women before there period. I have tried putting a hot water bottle on them today and the lump has gone so thats a good sign however they are still sore but thats normal at this stage in pregnancy. I will still mention it to midwife though just so she knows.
