Mine did, really bad the first couple of months.
What is the first sign for you?

 

[patnewmex]

For me that happens EVERY MONTH during TOM. :grump:

 

[WindowOrMirror]

Mine were fine the entire pregnancy, each pregnancy. My wife's were a mite sore during that same time however... ???

 

[Oggie]

When we had our son, my breasts felt the way they always do. I did gain a bit of weight though.

The only sign I had caused me to make an appointment with the doctor to discuss menopause...boy, did he have a surprise for me!

Mine hurt terribly. Even wearing my bra was painful, but taking it off was worse! I had severe morning sickness, if it can be called that when it happens 40 times a day. It wasn't just the first trimester either-- right up until the day I delivered I would throw up at least a few times a day.

Mine didn't hurt until the end of my pregnancy. But they did get huge in the beginning! But they were not tender or hurting.
God Bless,

Well, only w/ 2 out of my 4 kids. I also never really had "morning sickness" (usually in the afternoon & evening) except w/ my daughter. Only a bit of nausea w/ the 3 boys. With my 7 week old son,we didn't find out we were pregnant until I was 19 weeks along! I had no clue,until I felt the baby MOVE! Thought I was just gaining weight.
I had a positive test in November,then "started" a few days later. We thought either I had miscarried or the test was wrong (they very seldom ARE) . I missed the entire first trimester!

 

[bluefish]

Oh man! Were they ever!! My first sign though, with all of them, was cramps and peeing almost constantly about ten days before I was due.

 

[Fujiko]

The first two signs for me (other than missed period, which I chalked up to extreme stress) were insomnia (which I also chalked up to stress) and my nipples hurt when brushed up against. The nipples hurting thing is what made me take a test; if it wasn't for that, I would have gone a long time not knowing!

 

[Splinky]

Yeah, mine hurt really bad, but I was lucky not to suffer much morning sickness. I only threw up once and that was at work. I worked in a warehouse with a bunch of big burly guys. I went running to the bathroom suddenly. When I came out my coworkers were waiting for me. All seemed concerned and then one tentatively asked if I was pregnant. With out thinking I said, "you know , I think I might be." They all started grinning and one said, "Congratulations if you planned it, I'm sorry if you didn't." Those guys were a bunch of cards. Needless to say, they threw me one interesting baby shower.

I didn't have any of the telltale pregnancy symptoms, besides my belly swelling up... and that didn't happen until about 7 months. I didn't even know that I was pregnant until 3 months into it. My husband told his work buddies that I had been acting different somehow (I didn't notice anything, though), and they told him I was pregnant. I think they were just joking with him, but he picked up a test anyway and made me use it. Sure enough, positive.

I haven't even had a problem with my boobs since Corbin was born (back in January). I'm still breastfeeding him, but never had a problem with leaking, hardness, cracking, or soreness.

I guess this means my next child is going to make me sick, sore, and leaky.

I woke up the day after conception with horribly aching breasts. We had been trying to conceive for over a year at that point, and I couldn't get the smile off of my face for the next two weeks, until we confirmed what I suspected for those two, long weeks. That pain was the best thing I ever felt in my life!!

They ached for the entire pregnancy.

 

[TxCloverAngel]

my first two pregnancies hurt very VERY badly.... even to let the water in the shower run over them.. OOOOch!!

But the other two times nothing much cept maybe a little "heavier" feeling.

But my first sign with all 4 was the fact that toothpaste would make me throw up. If I couldn't use toothpaste.. I knew I was pregnant lol

baby #1 - sick the whole 9 months bad!
2nd = nothing bad at all.
#3 - not sick, but bad back pain..
#4 - SIck sick sick.... back pain,,,, heartburn... bed rest.. emergency c-section (the only girl has been a pain from day one! lol)

 

[matt_man]

They did with the first 4 but don't this time around. Made me kinda worried. I have my first appointment of Thurs. and will be 10 weeks, so we'll see how things are going.

[NickieL]

ok....lots of horror stories here....


yikes lol

 

[Pony]

ooooh.... Yeah. That was my first sign that I was pregnant. First they tingled, then... DON'T TOUCH ME!!!

Once the nausea of pregnancy kicked in, though, the breast pain seemed to diminish.

Pony!

 

[teresab]

First sign for me...sorry NickieL...dizziness. Also the smell of coffee made me sick and I LOVE coffee.

 

[sheepish]

The only time I ever had sore nipples, even through extended breastfeeding of 4 children was when I was first pregnant with our son. With the 3 girls there were no problems.
