I'm 22+4 and my nipples are killing me! (Sorry, tmi...) I'd try and ignore it but it's keeping me awake at night. I had big boobs even before I got pregnant, now my boobs feel so heavy they are like cow udders...

Can anyone recommend anything that might help?

Only suggestion is a sports bra at night to try to minimise rubbing.

You have my sympathy, mine are horribly sensitive too (22+4 as well).

I no exactly how you feel! Just wearing a bra is so pain full at the minute, I haven't got a clue what could help just wanted to let you know I feel your pain :( I'm 22+3 xx

Make sure your bras are as smooth as possible on the inside - you'd be surprised how irritating lace and seams and bits can be agony. Would something like some bamboo breast pads help? They'd be nice and smooth and soft.

I sympathise - I had many a day when I was desperate to rip my bra off by 11am.
