I'm 9 weeks 3 days, my boobs have eased up on pain since I've started wearing bigger bras. Sports bras really didn't help me much.

@edeg07: Try heating pads but you may also need to buy bigger cotton, no wire bras. I found as long as they were comfortably held and not squished or touched they didn't hurt as much.

@Linsay_Berger: Your boobs/nips are itching because your skin is stretching and likely dry. Keep them lotioned A LOT ladies daily.

This may seem weird but massage them or try a warm compress like a heating pad. I'm almost 5 months and I have to use the heating pad. But I don't have much soreness

I'm 6 weeks and 3 days. I've been using cold compresses for a few minutes here and there. Also, I've been wearing a sports bra when I can. For Some reason the gentle pressure helps.
