I'm back with...

Itchy boobs ... well thing is I was starting to feel like I wasnt pregg until today. I saw something that has changed my mind. I have these little bumps VERY close to the nipple area not in the main part of the areola which is where I thought they were supposed to be. I've been scratching my boobs for about 1 1/2 now and DIDNT see bumps so I dismissed as NOT being anything to do with pregnancy symptoms .  On closer inspection there is a tiny bumps, looks like a goosebump all alone lol. but today I am itching like mad WHICH IS two days before my calculated cycle in the max days of 28 for me.

It itches soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much and even the tips of my nipps  are itchy .. Is there anything you guys can tell me... also how to I get rid of the itching.

Thanks hunnie I'll try to buy it on-line. I'll try not to scratch too hard, it gets embarrassing when Im in front of people and I get an itch that I NEED to scratch lol. Sorry for passing you itchy feelings haha :D
Again thanks so much for the info :)

I am fairly certain that you are pregnant! Congrats! I know what you are saying. I get itchy as well and it is annoying as heck.
Bathing with Caress liquid soap has helped a bunch. You can also try putting on lotion with lanolin. There is a breast cream sold at babies R Us (Hopefully you will find it at a store in England) but if not you can order it online. It's Lansinoh Brand Lanolin Topical Breast Cream. It’s only like $12.00 online. Try not to scratch too much. I know. It can be a pain! But try not to scratch too much so your  skin won’t be irritated.  Christ! Reading your post just made me itchy! lol

wow no period at all in Feb girl I cant wait to hear you're test results way cool.  I feel the same exact way. I can handle being preggo... but if Im not then It means something not normal and more medical... so I totally hear you on that. I had a scare back in Jan. I was eating like there's no tomorrow, my breast hurt even more than now to the point I couldnt even sleep properly and I was tired to the point sleeping is all I thought about.. I thought I'm either preggo or diabetic (as some symptoms) were crazy.

I hope this works out for both of us:)
Big hugs

Oh! Absolutely!!! I am so excited that you are going to the doctor tomorrow! ahh! I would be going absolutely crazy lol I kinda already am.

I think I am going to wait a few more days-- I just want to be like 100% sure that Im not taking it too early. Because I have already wasted one test lol-- I hadnt waited 2 weeks. I didnt have a period at all in February-- I should've started on the 27th-- give or take.

I dont think that I have had too crazy of cravings or anything?... just other symptoms. But certain smells make my stomach turn. If im not pregnant I have no idea what is wrong with me then && that kind of scares me : /  Like Im hoping that Im pregnant just because I dont know what else it would be.

Ive looked at your hpt pictures, I see a very faint line! :D

Lol totally hun, I've heard all sort of nutty symptoms I hope we are ;) When are you going to wait until? So exciting I cant wait to hear how this all turns out for us.

My husband keeps saying Im putting on weight which is so not ok but... I do look... like Im putting on some pounds. I wont even tell you how much sweets I've had this week.. It will make you puke. I've eaten loads of candy and sweets, dont know if its a myth but heard some woman crave sweets and candies (chocolate, gummies fizzy coke candies, rice krispies)  or savory food (meat burgers, eggs, bacon. lol) stuff.

So nervous because tomorrow I have a doctors appointment (because I just moved to England and Im registering with a new doctor in this country) and my husband knows NOTHING about any of this (hpt testing every three days business) so Im hoping they wont check my pee - I turn out to be preggo and that he tells us. Because I would like to surprise him you know.

Well the itchiness (I have learned this the hard way this pregnancy) is just there until you find a good lotion that is not going to irritate your skin. This was definitely one of my first symptoms this pregnancy and never had any itchiness except later on when my skin was stretched to eternity lol. This pregnancy has been completely different for me :D When are you going to take another test?
