Hi!
The first thing I always recommend is a pregnancy test. If you are not pregnant, it may simply be that your hormones are out of balance this cycle and causing you to retain water for some reason.  Water retention can cause breast swelling and discomfort.  Ibuprofen and a good sports bra can sometimes provide good relief.
Good luck!
