Has anyone had less breast changes after nursing previous pregnancy?

I am newly pg but with all 3 of my boys my breasts (especially the nipples) were sore and sensitive very early. With DS1 and DS2 it was before I even knew I was pg. I did not nurse DS1 or DS2 for longer than 2 months and there are 10 yrs between DS2 and DS3. I nursed DS3 for 8 month and just stopped at the end of June/beginning of July. With this pregnancy I am have noticed only very minor breast symptoms. They feel a little fuller but maybe the nipples are a teeny bit more sensitive, but nothing like my other pregnancies. This is scaring me because I also do not have ms yet, and I did with all 3 boys (although Im unsure exactly when it started, it seemed very early). Has anyone noticed less sensitive breasts after nursing a previous child? I am wondering if the hormones from nursing are making me less susceptible to changes?

With my first, my breasts change dramatically even before the bfp. I nursed him for a year. With my 2nd and 3rd, I barely had any soreness. They got slightly fuller, but other than that, I would not have known I was pg by my boobs. Lol. So maybe there's something it!

Thanks Shellbelle that makes me feel better! Oh, I see you are CD1....does that mean AF arrived? I'm so sorry you didnt get your bfp...I hope this cycle is your time! :hug2:

Yes, AF is here in full force. :( Thanks!

If it makes you feel better, I was so worried when I was pg with my 2nd (my dd) because I didn't have all the classic, intense pregnancy symptoms that I had with my first. She ended up being fine. :)

Hi winngrin I've had exactly the same as you this time no boobie pain till at least 5 weeks on very sore nips have now grown probably 2 cup sizes (8 weeks now) no morning sickness just feel sick!

With all my boys boobs were massive before my bfp nursing wise ds1 - 6 months ds2 - 4months and 6 years later ds3 - 2 months feeding! So not sure if it's related at all! xx

I think it's a little too early for ms. Next week at this time you may be wishing you never wrote this...lol. And my bb's only got sore with baby #2. And this is my 6th pregnancy. Try not to worry.

Wow Tiifani! 2 sizes already? Can I get some of that please? My a cups are so sad over here!

My boobs were only sore for my first.

My boobs are not as sore this time around either but they are fuller. They are busting right out of my bra, yikes!

same here thou not got to number 3 yet x

Nursed #1 (DD, nursed for a year) for a year, bbs didn't really get big or sore until abut 6 mos. For #2 (DS, nursed for a year) was into one cup size up around 4 months. This time around, bbs are HUGE and extremely sore and was already in a 38D (from 36C) at 8 weeks. Honestly, my bbs are so sore that I almost cry when I take my bra off at night. Plus I've gained like 12 lbs and I'm showing already (10 weeks tomorrow).

Mine barely changed with my last two pregnancies and despite my best efforts I wasn't able to bf as my milk just didn't come in. This time they have grown quite a bit (for me!) already so I am really hoping that I may be able to bf this time! :)
