No Breast tenderness 4wks5days

Hi all,
I have been going crazy with this since I've had my first pregnancy test last week. I took about 5 pregnancy tests last week, all very positive and dark. My concern is every month around 5-7 days past ovulation I get very sore, tender, swollen boobs. About 1-2 days before my menses they decrease in size and that's how I know menstruation will soon ensue. This cycle, my breasts got somehwat swollen on day 9 past ovulation, then maybe a little bigger a few days later, then they've just decreased. Now they're maybe slightly bigger and very slightly tender but really I wouldn't even notice if I wasn't checking. I was thinking this could be a sign of low progesterone. My luteal phase is always 13 days. This is my first pregnancy as well and my first appt is not until Jan. 2nd. Thanks for any help.

Whoa... just calm down a minute. When you become pregnant your body undergoes many changes. Just because you don't have some of the most common symptoms does not mean you will lose the baby. Some women have all the symptoms, and others may not get any! Pregnancy changes you literally and figuratively.

You're reading so much into this that you're not even able to enjoy the wonder and joy of being pregnant. Focus on that instead of your boobs.

I would not worry.Not everybody gets very tender breasts this early on. Tenderness will come and go. Enjoy your pregnancy.
