How are your boobs feeling? « Back to Group Discussions

I know its totally normal but my nipples are so sensitive.  It kind of makes me glad that we're not nursing anymore (milk dried up/weaned about 1.5 months ago).  I can barely touch them!

Yes, my nipples are *extremely* sensitive! My boobs are really sore, too. I have to brace myself when I take my bra off...

I thought I'd comment here too.  My boobs are killing me.  It hurts to roll over in bed on them they are so tender.  They are very sensitive to the touch as well and when DH is picking at me and bumps them it frustrates me to no end ... on the other hand when we are "getting close" it is a MAJOR turn on.  And since he's not allowed to touch them after birth because they will leak all over him, we MUST take advantage now :)

Mine are perpetually sore but not too painful. Except when DD latches on. Ouch!! I'm so touched out that I told DH I'm fine with some action as long as it doesn't involve foreplay lol.

I was just telling a friend I need to start wearing a bra in the shower...the water is soo painful when it hits the girls.  Youch.

Thankfully, mine aren't too bad. Just grew a size and feel more like nursing boobies even if I'm not nursing anyone. To those who have nursed, that'll make sense. :)

Haaa, mine are driving me crazy! I guess I need to go bra shopping again, because I can't decide if it is worse to wear a bra or not. They have gotten noticeably bigger and my nipples have sort of changed shape (?), so I keep rolling over or smashing my arms ONTO my nipples when I'm in bed because I'm not used to where they are! Owwww.

Super sized. Nipples are sensitive now too. That is one thing that has been different about this pregnancy is that they have been huge and sore since before I found out I was expecting. And now they are getting ready to nurse two.

Thankfully, they're barely tender anymore but they feel huge.  I'm up a cup size and they feel like they weigh 5 pounds each.  My nipples and areolas are already big and swollen/firm.  My nipples are sensitive especially when my son elbows them but also in a fun way   I never quit having the teeniest bit of milk after weaning my son in Feb. 2011.  I still continue to have dried milk in my nipples.

Something different than my first pregnancy, my milk ducts get kind of aching (one at a time) sometimes.  I find myself having to massage the sore spot (that feels a little like a clogged duct does but not that intense).

Oh, the pain during the initial latch is ouchy!! I'm having to remind myself to breathe and not hold my breath. I'm so grateful it only lasts for 30 seconds or so. And yes, they're sensitive otherwise too, but fortunately my clothes aren't hurting. But, I gotta agree with the extra sensitivity being good for the, ahem, sex life!

Angelbee, is that 3D picture in your profile pic of the baby you're pregnant with?! What an awesome shot! I had an u/s today and they tried to get a good shot, but baby was not cooperative. All we got was a pretty decent shot of his leg. Ha!

AngelBee is having 2 babies...but otherwise, good question. :)

Funny about your ultrasound pic. Stubborn/active kiddo already.

I'm sensitive too but have huge touch aversion. Sex drive is zero. DD is cutting her two year molars and her sleep is suffering. Last night she was latched on for over two hours nonstop, sucking strong and fast the whole time. My skin was crawling and I wanted to throw my boobs out the window then jump out myself and run away! Only 23.5 weeks left

I've had many a nap time with my DS like this! Oh the pain!!!

Super sensitive nipples was my clue to being pregnant when I was only days along. Thankfully that subsided at around 10 weeks, but then they came back! I have no idea what happened but I'm not happy with it. Luckily clothes don't bother them, but when DS latches or DH brushes them in bed, they sure are tender.
