Breasts not as sore...normal?

LauT · Feb 17th, 2012, 07:19 AM

My breasts have been very tender more or less since I found out I was pregnant but since yesterday they have been gradually less painful and today they feel almost normal again! Has anyone else experienced this? I know it might sound silly

but I just worry after reading different posts about symptoms lessening...any comments/expereinces/reassurances welcome!

how far gone are you? i find if i tap my nipples they can be sore but nothing else really, I worry about not having any symptoms, I'm only early days but still. I think symptoms kick in from 7 weeks? x

I've had this too, my boobs hardly hurt at all now, I think it's normal so try not to worry I know that's difficult though.

symptoms come and go. like for me some days are worse than others. you should be fine as long as there's no bad cramping and bleeding

Thanks ladies. I am 8 weeks today and like you, I have a slight tenderness on my nipples when I touch them but I just worry as it's nothng compared to how tender they have bene for the last few weeks!

Helps to know that other have the same experiences/concerns though!

Laut - I am having the same thing happen to me! My boobs were really sore but now they don't really hurt at all. My only real symptom is fatique.

Completely normal. You have a massive increase of blood early on then you get used to it. Around 18-22 weeks they'll get sore again when the milk production gets started so make the most of it!

Yep, mine are definitely not as sore now compared to 4-6 weeks. In fact I had an emergency scan on Monday due to some spotting and was so worried as my boobs were much less sore, but baby was fine and measured bang on for dates

so yes it seems it's normal for symptoms to come and go! x

Congratulations Elhaym on your early scan being all ok! How many weeks along are you at the moment?

I am currently 8 weeks 3 days - I was 7 and a bit weeks when my breast soreness reduced. It's still there a little but only if I really poke them (which I do a lot, haha) x
