38 weeks and my nipples hurt so bad

Alexandria
Has anyone else experienced this? It's like a burning stinging ache with or without a bra, they just hurt!!! Is this an early sign of labor? I haven't felt any real contractions and I'm 1 cm dilated as of last Tuesday. I'm due May 21! Can anyone relate? How do you soothe this feeling?
