sore boobs? shed some light pls

Hello! I have been reading alot on breast tenderness via the web...I am confused? some sites state that you can have breast tenderness within a few days of conception and others state not till your in the 4-6 week of the pregnancy. I was curious to hear when all of you have had breast tenderness. My breasts first felt like tingling, like an electric sensation, now that has past, and now they are only sore on the sides. My hubby and I have been doing the BD. My AF was here on 1/4/08, and according to an ovulation calendar, I was supposed to O on the 20th, BD was done on 1/14,1/15,1/16/1/19.....I am hoping to be prego, but this game of waiting is driving me crazy, I can't test till next week. ok...so now i'm rambling, when did you all have breast tenderness???

I got breast tenderness around the time i was due to have AF so i just put mine down to the fact that i was going to get AF, the problem is AF and pregnancy symptons and signs are very similiar so its hard to tell if you are pregnant or are expecting AF and everyones body is different as people experience different things at different times or not at all. Hope you are i have my fingers crossed for you.

i did not start feeling breast pains until my 5th week, now every day since my nipples are sore, nothing else onthe breast just the nipples.  It is driving me nuts.

I knew i was preggo when i randomly became constipated within one day.  But all women are different and have different symptoms, if they even have any

Sharon - we're all different, but this is how it was for me: I had serious breast tenderness (it hurt to sleep, cross my arms, anything!!) about 4 days before AF was scheduled to arrive, which is pretty normal for me but not to that degree. It lasted about 48 hours. Then nothing... some slight darkening & little bumps but no sensitivity. I was starting to think I was not pregnant. Then I tested very dark +++ on 2 HPT's a few days later...which was a week ago. And just now, 7 days later, I am having breast sensitivity again - just started this morning actually!! Not so much sore like they were before; more of a tingling, and just in my left one. And they're beginning to look like road maps (blue veins under the skin)...... so, it's totally an off-and-on thing for me. Very best wishes to you! **baby dust** :)

I always get breast tenderness before my period, I am 5 weeks now and it seems to be worse. So much so that they sometimes hurt when I walk.

Breast tenderness was my first symptom. I figured AF was coming..but I noticed they started hurting a week and a half before I was due. I never started bleeding so I tested and got my BFP two days after my AF was due. So...about 4 or 5 dpo was when I started feeling tender...and it just got worse and worse. I wanted to kill when anything touched them! lol. As you can see it differs for every girl! lol

We are on the same schedule!  I too have been experiencing breast tenderness and they've been sore for the last couple of days including my nipples.  If I sqeeze them they hurt or lay on my belly they hurt.  The pain is starting to hurt on the sides into my armpits.  I've also been experiencing mild cramps in my lower abdomen on and off all day long for the last couple of days.  It is so confusing researching information on the web and to hear from other ladies to have totally different symtoms or experience them sooner.  I hope we are both prego as I cannot test until next week myself.  Baby dust to you!!!!

Mine didn't start until I was about 6 weeks pregnant.  But it really varies greatly from woman to woman and even pregnancy to pregnancy.
