Signs of breast cancer? Maybe I'm paranoid?

I am pregnant, so I know that this has alot to do with some of the pain, but my left breast is not only much more sore to the touch but during sex it isn't pleasureable at all. Again, I know I'm pregnant and that has something somewhat to do with it, but it's like that when I'm not pregnant too, and now that I look back I realize that when I breastfed my other children I've had trouble out of the same breast. I just always thought I favored one. Am I paranoid or could it be something serious? I'm only 24!

1. Wait until after you have this baby, and get a mammogram. It's the only way to be sure, but you wouldn't want the radiation in your body when you're pregnant. Most likely it's nothing... It is common to favor one breast, but check it out just to be sure!
2. any sex or mental health should be checked out at www.goaskalice.com its columia university's super sitr for sex and mental health
3. Most likely it is not breast cancer...but it is important to mention it to your doc at your next visit. If you are really concerned give them a call and ask the nurse. It maybe due to fluid retention, swollen glands, and the start of milk production. Either way considering getting checked out sooner better than later. You are having another baby which is exciting!! So calling the doc my helpful lower your stress level. Best of luck.
4. i truly hope & pray that it is NOT cancer. i agree that you might need to see a gynocologist, if i spelled that right. we will be praying for you,ok...
