Very Scared/Concerned :(

So I know our breasts go through crazy weird changes during pregnancy. But I'm a bit concerned about this. I am about 15 weeks in my second trimester, and tonight I noticed on my left breast above my nipple(on my arreola) that it is like caving in a little. And on certain spots I have broken blood vessel spots. I'm worried because I've never known anyone with a symptom like this from pregnancy, and I know it can be a sign of breast cancer. While I know having breast cancer at age 20 is highly unlikely, I know it's still possible. And I'm worried that if it is not cancer it is still something else that's not good :/ ugh. Has anyone else had ANYTHING like this during pregnancy?

I know its not the same but I was going through a similar thing a couple of weeks ago because I found lumps in my breast, it sounds stupid but I actually cried cause the first thing I thought was cancer! I had to pluck up the courage to get my.boobs out infront of my midwife, and she had a feel and said they were most likely congested milk ducts. One of them was a visible lump which has gone but one of them was actually in my tissue, I darent even check if its still there. Because I have really large breasts my midwife said I am gonna be one of these ladies who gets lumps and bumps on my boobs. Just know that you are not alone and that there is always support out there. Hope youre ok xx

Thank you! Thankfully I have an appointment with my GYNO today, so I can talk with her about my worries. I've just been totally freaking out :/ I don't feel any lumps or pain besides regular pregnant soreness, but of course something that different made me worry! I'm hoping it's nothing at all :)

Sometimes things we didnt notice before become more prevalent as our bodies grow bigger and the influx of hormones too. For example: I have a lump under my arm. (In my armpit) that's fatty breast tissue that has grown to be waaaay bigger and more tender then before. It was super scary at first and now its just meh! I thought I had breast cancer too. So while I don't know if what your having is normal or not the best thing to do, ask your physician to check your boobies out! From what I've read online other pregnant women have had the same problem as you. So you're probably okay but just check to just be safe :-) good luck I hope someone more informed who could help you reads your post
