Sore boobs 8 weeks pregnant

Oh... My.... God! My boobs are so painful! Going to bed is the worst, having to sleep on my back as it's too painful on my side! I'm 8 wks, anyone else had this? When does it stop?! Someone hugged me at work today, I had to bite my tongue to stop from yelling in pain! I'm usually a 32FF anyway, but I swear that's increased already! Husband will be delighted!

I have every sympathy! I was a 32FF before the bfp. I'm now in a 34G sports bra (15+4 today). Haven't been able to cope with underwire for over a month. It gets better - I am now able to lie on my front (with a pillow for added comfort) without crying in pain - was probably around 12 weeks that I could do that. Though the bump will appear any moment and put a stop to that one. I'm currently living in Asia and it is impossible to buy a bra bigger than a d-cup (and even they are only available in plus-size stores). 5 more weeks and I'm back in the UK, a bravissimo trip is top of my schedule. I've slept with a pregnancy pillow since about 10 weeks, mainly because of my boobs - it did help a bit.

A sleep bra saved my sanity! I was in a lot of pain for the first 12 weeks but a sleep bra helped and then it did get much much better in second tri.

At 30 weeks I'm in a cheap sports bra from tesco - im currently 34F and normally invest in nice bras I can't bear spending £30 only for my boobs to change again when the baby arrives.

I was planning on a Bravissimo trip tomorrow, but I like the sports bra idea - I still want support, I don't want everything sagging just yet lol!

Yes normally when I'm due on my period my boobs are a little tender, but soon as I found out I was pregnant from about 6 weeks I've never felt pain like it. Lasted for weeks too, I'm quite top heavy.

Yet again hormones and it will calm down I didn't find any thing helped me. I do feel your pain

Mine lasted until 16 weeks, and wearing a crop top thing was the best ever investment I've made!

It was so painful in 1st trimester omg. Every time I took my bra off and moved in bed I wanted to cry.

A proper maternity bra helped hugely I was in them by 8 weeks. I went from a 32DD to a 38F Shock I had an emergency bra from m&s then went to a specialist lingerie store to be fitted and am now comfy and growing at 21 weeks.

Went to Bravissimo and now have a fantastic pyjama top with bra-support built in! Hallejulah!! The best £32 I've ever spent!
