17+6 and boobs feel less heavy/ firm

Has anyone else had this before? They still feel sore and more firm than before pregnancy, but having just had a few weeks where they felt huge/ swollen/ firm/ heavy it feels really strange now they feel softer again. Everything I’ve seen before is about boobs feeling less sore in the second trimester but I don’t mean soreness, I mean the heavy/ firm feeling. Anyone else?

Im 18 weeks at the moment, had firm, heavy and sore breasts up until around 6 weeks and then it all stopped, no tenderness, no heavy feeling or firmness, even the morning sickness stopped. I worried myself sick about it thinking I'd lost the baby, turns out baby is absolutely fine, no idea why it stopped as I had heavy, firm and sore breasts and other symptoms throughout my whole pregnancy with my 1st. I wouldn't worry too much as a lot of women have this and have completely healthy pregnancies, but I know it's easier said than done to stop worrying, if you're really concerned about it you could ask your midwife for advice.

Hi, I have the same thing. If anything I feel my boobs have reduced in size but I had a private scan on Monday and everything was absolutely fine. Today I’m 19 weeks

My boobs certainly calmed down in terms of soreness, around 15 weeks I think....don't recall exactly. I am a very small boobied person when not pregnant, but they get huge during, so I guess mine just complained a lot while growing then calmed down, which is fine by me as I know they are going to go nuts again after birth.

Yea same. Start of second tri that tenderness went. They arent as swollen either. Feel normal. I got worried too but think its normal.
