39 weeks and boobs are agony

[wifeyxx]

Now 39 weeks and 4 days pregnant. My boobs are SO sore and swollen. Don't rember this with my first! Anyone else been like this?

Anyone?

No clue - I'm not there yet, but giving a bump in case someone else knows!

Any signs of mastitis?

Put warm/hot water on towels and sit against your boobs.

It will help them

A midwife once told me to put cabbage in my bra to soothe my sore boobs,I thought she must be a crazy old bat, but turns out it worked.😂

Ye one of my friends told me to do that in my first pregnancy. My boobs only got sore once I had given birth so this is a first for me

Try hand expressing to see if releasing any colostrum helps.

Thank you 😊

I had sore boobs my third pregnancy was advised to wear comfortable support at all times during and night. This helped massively. I found sports bras most comfortable.

Must of been a sign that I was gonna have my little girl soon. Had her on Mother's Day

Congratulations !

Thank you

How are you and baby doing ? Does baby have a name yet?

Ye were good thanks for asking. Her name is Astrid

I’m sure she is beautiful 😀
