Armpit lumps late pregnancy?

Question

I have 1 small lump in each armpit although left one is larger and first one I noticed. I’m almost 37 wks. My obgyn said they feel like enflamed lymph nodes or milk ducts since I’m pregnant 
Said let’s see how they look next visit because they may go away and I may need a scan to check them
I’m scared!!!! Has this happened to anyone

Answer

This has happened on my right side. It was about 1cm and I mentioned that to my family doctor. She sent me to have an ultrasound done but the tech couldn't find it even when I pointed to it. It was a lump which the doctors said it's normal during pregnancy. Perhaps get it checked out to get a peace of mind.

Answer

I had this issue in late pregnancy! For me it also lasted a few weeks postpartum, and I've just recently noticed it going down (baby is 8 weeks). My OB said it was a swollen gland or lymph node and it was nothing to worry about, but if it changed any (got red, hard, or painful) then to follow up.
