Actually, in early pregnancy I would say there is no difference because in either case sore boobs are caused by the increase in progesterone in the luteal phase. If you are not pregnant the lluteal cyst collapses, the progesterone drops and you start your period. If you are pregnant the luteal cyst does not collapse, continues to produce progesterone and is now called the corpus luteum. So progesterone is the cause of most pms and most early pregnancy symptoms...just ask anyone who has to take progesterone to support early pregnancy...it causes all the nightmare symptoms we hate - boobs, bloating, headaches, mood swings, sweats and whinging, lots and lots of whinging. Funny thing is, in my successful pregnancy I had no boob symptoms or symptoms of any kind until well after 8 weeks...so obviously sometimes the hormones don't affect us and other times they're a valid defence for homicide.
