"Sunburned" breasts?

Question

I know that having sore, swollen breasts is part of being pregnant, but what about them feeling somehow "sunburned?"

I'm 11+2 and patches on my breasts sting & burn. There isn't any visible redness or irritation. Anyone else experiencing this?

Answer

I feel that on my belly. I'm 37 weeks and this little girl has tore my stomach up with stretch marks! On occasion, I'll rub my belly and I'll feel a sunburn sensation afterwards. Don't know if it's related to the skin being pulled so tight or more stretch marks appearing but I know what you're talking about! It reminds me to lotion up. Even though I've already got marks.

Answer

I never felt that, but could it be because skin is stretching fast? Keep them moisturized.

Answer

I've been feeling it since before I even knew I was pregnant. They're a little red, itchy, and even peeling like a sunburn, I think it's just from them growing and stretching. Just keep them moisturized, coconut oil works great!
