Question

My poor boobies! Anyone else about 19/20 DPO like this?

They're so sore to the point it feels like they did after I had my daughter and they were engorged! I hate you, gravity. :( I'm about 5 weeks pregnant so I know they're not engorged, but they sure do feel like it. Even worse than they did yesterday, is there anything I can do about it? I know they say to use cabbage leaves when they're engorged but would it work since they're not?

Try wearing a sports bra. Not a tight one, but a well fitted one when you sleep. Hope this helps!

On Easter, I was about 9/10 DPO or something like that. Had positives Sunday, Monday, Thursday, and Friday! Planning to re-test Friday to see how much darker it is! My first BFP was very very very faint and was on the dip stick one that came with my OPK that I got from Walmart!

Hi, I'm 20DPO today (5 weeks pregnant) and I completely know how you feel.

My boobs feel so heavy and sore and just walking feels like I'm jumping on a trampoline the day before AF is due.

My suggestion is to do what I'm seriously considering and getting a sports bra. They are designed to give you more support and so should help take away the hatred of gravity. :)

Unfortunately, I don't think there's much else you can do but persevere with it. I know it's difficult but think positive that the symptoms are a good sign that the pregnancy is strong and progressing. I know that kind of thinking is helping me get through it.

Roll on the second trimester when hopefully the soreness will calm down.

Congratulations anyway and lots of sticky baby dust to you!
