Painful Lumpy Breasts during pregnancy
February 17, 2008
I know the breasts go through lots of changes as they prepare for milk making...
(1) Mine are so sore and lumpy tonight... I'm assuming this is normal.. but I need validation! :o)
I'm super paranoid about my breasts, because my mother died of breast cancer.. and she actually discovered the tumor while breastfeeding my youngest sister...
(2) So is there a way for me to differentiate between normal lumps and not normal lumps?
(3) Also.. i've got some painful areas on the side of my breast.. near my armpit (lymphnodes I'm assuming) I don't feel any swelling.. is this normal also?
I don't know if it matters, but just in case.. I'm 24 1/2 weeks along.
