Lumps under areola???

[embeth]

Anyone else have squishy lumps under their areola??
When I was about 37 weeks I noticed I had a soft and v movable ball to the right of my nipple under my areola.. I've since noticed I have a couple on the same side and something v similar in a v similar place in the opposite side?? They don't feel like much at all if I push down but the biggest one in particular I can get between my fingers and move around everywhere?? I will ask my gp at 6 week check.. Really don't want to start stressing about it has all this with a lump when I breastfed my son which was scanned and fine.. One of the things I hate about feeding causes me endless worry!

They sound like enlarged milk ducts. I have a few as well. Sometimes they can get blocked xx

Thanks Bev. Logic is telling me they're nothing as there's more than one and the big one I'm worried about moves around all over the place like it's not attached! Do any of yours almost feel like soft balls between your fingers? Ive ordered a pump as I need a little store in the freezer so really going to massage and see if it gets smaller at all.. Always seems to be there if I look for it but am so full of milk as its early days it's hard to tell xx

Mine feel like that too. Moveable lumps are usually a good sign that they're harmless

I decided to go to the doctors about these lumps... I can't rest easy.. Have never had these balls under my areola with my previous breastfeeding so want them
Checked.. Now I'm stressing as he referred me 😟😟😟 I don't know why as that's what I wanted.. Just having actually put through makes me worry more.. He did say it was a precaution rather than a concern.. Really hoping all is fine xx

The doctor is probably just covering his back and being over cautious hun. Hope it goes ok xx
