😩 “Even my bra hurts!”

If you’ve ever been pregnant, you probably know exactly what that feels like.

Suddenly…

Your breasts feel swollen and they’re sore to touch.

The good news? This is often a normal part of pregnancy. Read!!!

Q: Please ma’am, a pregnant woman that her breast is swollen up and she is complaining that her breast is paining her…which drug can she take to reduce the pain?

A: Thanks for writing in, dear. Breast pain/tenderness during pregnancy is to be expected and one of the signs of pregnancy.

This is due to the hormones, Estrogen and progesterone, increase in blood flow and fat deposits in the breast…all in preparation for the job of breastfeeding the soon-to-be-born baby.

To help out during this period, she should invest in a good bra that provides the right support and sleep with bra tops or sports bras when sleeping to give her more support if she’s uncomfortable while sleeping.

Her partner should know that her breasts may be extra tender for a while.

The good news is that, this too, shall pass. Usually, by the end of the first trimester, the breast pain is history! 😀
