addicted to Web MD

Ok so Im just ranting and venting, because I cant sleep. not looking for advice because I know it's something I need to take care of myself.

I swear it's one thing after another and I find out something's wrong with me.
Beginning of my pregnancy I noticed a small lump on the bottom of my armpit and was like..ok. Weird. Didnt think too much of it.

Well Yesterday I felt it and it tripled in size and now is noticably larger.. Only hurts when touched or pushed in. Its on the side of my breast yet under my armpit.

And of course I self diagnose and see breast cancer as an option. Well wtf now Im scared!
Im 28 weeks today. What if I cant breastfeed or have something seriously wrong with my health??!

Im going to the doctor tomorrow after work to have it checked out. Sorry lol i needed to tell someone!

Rant/vent over :) thanks

Possibly your lymph nodes?  If you were sick few weeks prior or are about to get sick, your body fighting any type of virus or bacteria,  infection they will swell. Definitely worth checking out. Best wishes hun

Same thing happened to me, it went away. My doctor said its nothing to worry about unless it keeps coming back.  I wouldn't stress it, but definitely tell your doctor about it.
