So much pain.

Good afternoon all. Just pondering some things and was hoping someone could relate. My husband and I are trying to concieve, and I am not due for my period for another five days yet. For the last week, I have woken out of bed, and stood up only to grimace in pain due to the fact that my already large breasts are much larger and they hurt oh so much. I cannot even touch them througout the day without wincing. They feel very sore, and very heavy. Along with this, is a case of super-sensitive nipples. Anything brushes them, I can feel it as if the sensation were being muliplied by ten.

I've not expierenced this before, so of course hubby and I are wondering if this could be a symptom. As, I really haven't had any other symptoms, other than being more tired than usual and dizziness. Anyone have any thoughts on this one??

Welcome to the club - This is my main symptom too. I even have had a breast reduction which reduced my nerve function to almost nothing, and still - the pain is there. And it seems like the lighter the touch - the more it hurts too.

Good Luck to both of you!!!!

With my DS - I couldn't stand my bra, my shirt - nothing!!!

I couldn't sleep - I wanted them exposed to the air - except if a light breeze passed by -is set them on fire!

Also - couldn't face the showerhead either - had to wash everything with my back to the showerhead and just let it roll off the front.

So - yes - it is a symptom and a good one too!

Here's to BFP for both of you!

I will take the good luck and thank you for it. :) Also, thank you for welcoming me to the group. And yes, as far as the showerhead goes, that is so out of the question. Its baths all the way for me.

Anyone care to explain what BFP is? I am not familar with any of the acronyms on this site, so bear with me please. :)

Good day to you.

BFP= Big Fat Positive

I think there is somewhere on here that tells the abbreviations - if not - I know the webmd boards have a list - I will get them and post them for you.

I need a spell checker in here - man I can't type anymore either - is that a PG sign? LOL

I don't know. I haven't been able to face the showerhead for months. LOL.

With my daughter my boobs grew. And I was an A - then I went swimming one night (in a freezing pool) and noticed my top was busting out of my bathing suit. I was just happy about that but confused as well. That night I was very gassy and VERY easily irritated with my DH. I mean very. He wasn't even doing anything. LOL. Well a test that night was BFN but the very next morning it was BFP. There are so many factors to being PG and so many tell tell signs that I wouldn't just say sore boobs mean it. As some women get them every month anyways :-\

Yes, I would agree that just having sore bbs wouldn't be a definitive sign, but its not the only one I have - and I didn't have any feeling in them before - never got sore even before my breast reduction during any part of my cycle. I've been so mean and irritated so easily by my boyfriend that I made him cry the other day.
