I didnt realise how much I was doing it until my DD's and one of my good friends asked me at separate times today why I am constantly poking at my breasts. I was like "what are you talking about?". So then I started to pay attention and seriously every hour or so I poke or touch to see if there is pain or sensitivity...lol...I guess it is because tenderness is one of my first signs of pregnancy and I guess I think it will be the first symptom gone if something happens with baby.

I can just imagine what people out in public must be thinking if they happen to catch a glimpse of me feeling myself up....lol

How funny that you mention this! I didn't realize it until now, but YES, I seem to do this often. I think that because I usually (3 prior pregnancies) have much sorer breasts, I'm waiting for that symptom to kick in. I must be quite a spectacle in public:)

YES!! Me too. It is the first symptom I had with my first pregnancy and it is the first symptom I had now. Honestly, when I had my m/c, it was also the first thing I noticed that left--the immediately felt normal again so I am constantly touching my breasts to make sure they are still sore. Its so bizarre. Funny thing, also, is that my husband is now forbidden to touch my breasts because they are so sore.

Thanks for sharing.
