My partner and i made the decision to start trying for a baby 2 months ago. I got my period shortly after stopping the contraceptive pill on the 9th of May. Since i finished my last period, my nipples have been increasingly tender. The last few days even brushing them hurts. They are constantly errect, the bumps around them are excentuated, swollen and at different periods during the day the veins pop out. It is more my nipples that are bothering me as opposed to my breasts.. i would really like to gain some opinions from others second time mums as i have had a baby nearly four years ago now and breast fed with her. The feeling is quite simular to when the milk comes in after delivering..
