Question from elaine
I always get very sore breasts right around the time I ovulate up until my next period starts. And by sore, I mean it hurts to run, hurts to lay on my stomach, etc. I know that breast pain is an early pregnancy symptom. I am 7 dpo and waiting to find out if I am pregnant. I have major breast pain but wondering if it is possible to differentiate between ovulation pain and pregnancy pain??

I don’t think there is a clear answer to this hon. With my first two pregnancies, mine were sore off and on. Sometimes after ovulation, mine start to hurt and even then I have months where there’s very little tenderness all the way to extreme pain! When I got pregnant the third time, they were kind of medium sore from about 10 dpo forward, but I miscarried at 8 weeks.
My point is, it’s not a reliable pregnancy indicator. Hormones cause the breast pain and because they flucuate so much throughout your cycle, it’s really hard to tell the reason why.
Best wishes for a BFP this month!
