Questionnnnnnnnn!! TMI breast and sex

OK...This may be TMI but oh well. My breasts itch constantly!!! It dosen't matter what kind of bra I wear or if I don't wear one at all. Is this normal any ideas what could be causing this?
AND
I was having sex the other day and my guy was squeezing my breasts..didn't hurt but I started leaking out of one of them i'm only 16 weeks is that ok I told him to lay off on the squeezing so much.
AND
When I stand up for the last couple of days I have felt this pain on the sides of my stomach. I had been lying down for an extended period of time. Is this my muscles stretching or should I be concerned.
I'm sorry to ask so many questions but who better to ask?

#1 - the breast itching may be related to your boobs growing and the skin stretching. it tends to itch. Lotion may help, i would try the gold-bond lotion as it's designed to help calm itchy skin, but i have heard wonderful things about cocoa butter. Vitamin E is good as well.

#2- it's normal to leak at any time during pregnancy, especially during sex, or i used to find that after showers i would leak... weird.

#3- i used to get pains like that, my doctor told me it may be because of the ligaments stretching. If the pain persists or gets worse call your doctor.

I agree with Emily. It all sounds very normal. I use Palmer's Cocoa Butter Massage Lotion for Stretch Marks and it works very well. That would help with the itchy breasts.

About the leaking, that's totally normal. About the pains, that's totally normal as well - sounds like round ligament pain (just stretching to accommodate the growing uterus).

1~ my boobs itched like crazy also, but then again so did my whole body. I think in part it may be dry skin, and your boobs growing

2~your boobs can and almost certainly will leak anytime during pregnancy. Like Emily said, especially during sex or when aroused.

3~ sound like round ligament pain to me. I hated that, the only thing I can think for you to do is call the DR.

MY boobs itch all the time!! No matter what. I have VERY dry skin. I will be in work and have to itch my boob. I will go in the corner of my cubby and just itch!! LOL!

ANYWAYS just put lotion on them after your shower and before you go to bed!!
