Does anyone else get this?  

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
I had this happen with dd (although much later in the pregnancy). I feel like the skin right under my breasts is on fire. It feels as if my bra is rubbing my skin raw but it doesn't go away when I take my bra off. I'm sure it's just my skin stretching to accomodate this baby but it hurts! Anyone else have this and has anyone found a way to make it go away faster? It took 3 weeks for it to go away with dd.

Oww! I had somthing like this early pg with my first and I think again with another. For me, I only had it once or twice but with ds1 it was my first sign that I was pg. It hurt! I guess it is your breasts getting ready to become a food source!

it feels like my skin/ribcage right by my bra line is on fire. has been for about a month. and nothing really helps (though i have been using heat on the area). it is finally starting to calm down a bit (fully stretched out now???). i think it is the muscles from the rib cage expanding. it's probably one of my more bitter complaints!

I'm glad that I'm not the only one. Thanks ladies!! Hopefully it doesn't last as long as it did with dd. I was hoping that it wouldn't happen at all the second time around (shouldn't everything stretch easier this time). At least I'm not pregnant in the middle of the summer, that made it even worse.

I used baby powder right after a bath/shower and then again before bed. It was very soothing.
