Pregnancy Breast Tenderness
When you first get pregnant, your breasts might feel sore, tender or sensitive to the touch (much like before your period). Why are they feeling this way? Increased blood flow and tissue changes are culprits. More simply put, your breasts are preparing to make milk for your baby.

PREGNANCY BREAST PAIN
Tender breasts and sore nipples are often early signs of pregnancy. Your breasts might also feel full, swollen or painful to the touch. And while your breasts will continue to grow, they probably won’t stay tender to the touch longer than your third or fourth month.
While you’re waiting it out, your breasts might feel sensitive in the shower. Plus, sleeping on your stomach might no longer be an option.
To help with breast pain, consider a cool or warm compress to help soothe and comfort. Soothing massage cream on breast tissue and nipples can help, too.
How do I soothe pregnancy breast tenderness?
- Keep them comfortable: Try a cool compress, or if it’s more comfortable for you, a warm compress might be just as effective.
- Just add moisturizer: To address itchy or sore nipples during pregnancy, try a soothing massage cream.
