Hello there

Try not to worry too much as the breasts go through a series of changes during and after pregnancy, that can be read about here.

This is likely to be a milk duct but do mention it to your midwife or GP so they can assess you just to be sure and give you peace of mind.

I hope the rest of your pregnancy goes well and you can enjoy the arrival of your little one.

Get back in touch if you need to.

Take care

I have had solid pieces of duct that feels like wire, duct exctasia they can get inflamed and painful mine  have come and gone over the years some have been removed but none have been cancerous.
I hope yours calm down and you can relax and have your baby. I would have a word with my G.P.  They can get infected and antibiotics can help or just some painkillers when needed.  Tell your healthcare team and get their opinion.

Hi again

Without being examined it's pretty difficult commenting ,and that's why it's best to point it out to the GP and /or midwife. In pregnancy especially though, ducts can become more prominent and can feel hard. Have a chat with them about your concerns - it's not uncommon for your breasts to feel very different while pregnant and they will have come across similar situations.

All the best
