Has anyone else experienced or is going through having really quite sore bbs?? Is this normal? I've read my pg books but can't seem to find much info on it at this stage. Also the other day I saw some clear fluid coming out of one of the nipples (which have also changed shape I reckon)...is that early milk or something???? -------------   http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

I thought I'd only get this in the first trimester, however they never got paticularly sore then. Now though halfway through my pg, the nipples in paticular are *very* tender! So if my cat or son jump up on me the ooowwweee and DP can just forget it lol Replies:

Yes, it's normal. Mine have been very tender too all the way through. They've at least doubled in size - and nipples are definately different shape & size.
DH is in love with them - but gutted cos it's not often he can touch them lol |

Mine have been sore on and off throughout the pregnancy. The leaking will be colostrum and that's totally normal too. I started leaking around 15 weeks with both pregnancies, but everyone is different, some don't leak at all and some leak loads.
Is normal for the nipples to get bigger, nobblier and darker as well. Basically everything weird that happens is probably normal.....lol -------------

Yup. mine hurt sooooo bad when bubs goes through a growth spurt! Thats how I know and I can guarantee I will weigh a kg or 2 more a few days after it starts and fews days after that my tummy will get that icky stretching feeling.
Try and avoid the chilled section of the supermarket hun, it is murder! The colostrum is a fun surprise huh  -------------

With both pg's I had to wear breast pads from about 12 weeks, not cos i leaked, but cos they got sooooo sore, and the ends of my nipples would go all white as well. Breast pads were the only thing that helped and sometimes not even that did. -------------
