Can I chop my boobs off?

[BlueWolf]

My boobs were always a little sore during the 2ww... but nothing compared to this! They serious huuuurrrrt. If I'm not wearing a bra, it feels like they're going to start dragging at my knees. I seriously didn't think they'd hurt this bad! And if I turn on my side during the night... they hurt even more from being pushed together.

When will they stop hurting? Or am I just SOL from now on? Is there any way to relief from of the discomfort?

I've been wearing a bra pretty much 24/7 since I was a few weeks pregnant with my first. That was over three years ago. Between the soreness from three pregnancies and the needed support from breastfeeding I needed it. I do think the tenderness got better around the beginning of the 2nd trimester.

I feel like I need a new, softcup bra because my breasts are so sore and getting fuller/bigger/something. I'm not sure whether to buy it in the same size, go up, get something super stretchy...any words of wisdom?

at the title of this thread.

Mine hurt worse some days than others, but not as bad as yours sound.
Mango, maybe go to the store and try on different types to see what feels best. If they are sore, I would think a firm, very supportive (like a molded cup w/wires) would help best. If they are sensitive/tender to the touch, then a soft cup might be better.

Are they itchy? Mine are sore and heavy and sooo itchy!

Oh gosh! Mine are sore, but the worst for me it's the nipples!!! I can't stand for ANYTHING to touch them....even clothes. Sometimes they feel fine and then other times.....WHOA!

I'm hoping all these symptoms are good signs...

Mine aren't sore this time (thankfully) as much as last time (my first). The reason I took a pregnancy test last time was actually b/c if I wasn't wearing a sports bra (even in bed) I was crying from the pain. It'd hurt to breathe.

This time they're bigger already (6.5 weeks in) and I did buy a Bravado nursing bra rather than wasting my money on more normal bras I know I won't be able to use once the baby comes b/c they aren't nursing bras. The one I got was the Body silk seamless bra and it's super stretchy but still supportive AND a nursing bra. It might be time for you!

The thread title just made me

and thats partly because I am on the verge of mastitis.

Not in your ddc but LMFAO

I myself am double over w/ swore boobs. They honestly hurt to walk, breath, and go*-forbid if something was to accidently hit then. The fact that I have a 40+ pound 1yo puppy, that thinks hes still 10 lbs, doesn't make it any better as he leeps onto my lap and proceeds to KICK them!!!!!:

Eek try having that overwhelming soreness (mine's mostly just my nipples though) and nursing. Yeesh.
