Hi I gave up breastfeeding maybe 4 months ago and am pregnant 5.5 months. I have very lumpy boobs now and having been to doctor who says I m fine still don't feel reassured. Anyone else had lumps all over some are tender.

Hi, hope your ok! I haven't been breast feeding or have children but I have naturally lumpy boobs - this is what my Dr told me anyway and im always so so paranoid when I feel them, they are always so sore too. I have had them checked a few times when I get little new lumps and they have all been ok, I'm going on Monday for another lump i have found. I would try not to worry as i am sure it's related to hormones changing after breast feeding. There is no way the doctor would send you away if they had a slight doubt something was wrong, they aren't allowed to . Lots of love x
Hi and thanks for the post
It's not unusual for women who are pregnant or breast feeding to find their breasts feel lumpier than normal. It's good you went to the GP and were checked out.
Pain and tenderness is not usually a sign of breast cancer , but it can understandably be worrying. You may be interested in the following information on breast changes during pregnancy
I hope things start to settle down a bit for you, but if you carry on feeling concerned do go back to the GP and perhaps ask why they aren't concerned as this may help
All the best
