Extra breast!

I have always had extra nipples under each arm but now that I'm pregnant I noticed one of them is leaking. According to Dr. Google this is common during pregnancy. So now I'm wondering has anyone else noticed any "strange" things happening to their bodies.

  • This screams fake based on the subject matter, but I'm torn! Blahswife is a legit poster (and I'm mobile so I can't do great research either) so now I'm just confused.

    In lieu of responding to the actual post, I will say this:

    My husband DOES have a legit third tiny nipple about an inch below his regular nipple. It even gets hard when he is cold :)

    Yeah, they develope along the "milk line" apparently. They can be surgically removed. That has to be super irritating, maybe you can put a washable pad there and wedge it up in there with the help of your bra. It makes total sence that it could lactate since the web of the breast is one of the most common places to develope cancer, so therefore the ducts must go all the way up there. Well I've done my nerding out for the day.
    Edit: typo
  • Wow...i have a third nipple but mine never did anything exciting like leak milk with my son. I've really never paid much attention to it..
  • Well I have my appt Friday so I will bring it up but I was amazed by it mostly. It doesn't look like a real nipple and MH and use to joke about it. It's just amazing learning so much about the body now that I'm pregnant. I still thinks it's funny though. I don't think they'll remove it unless there's a problem but next time I go to the VA I'll ask about that also.
    Sometimes they will actually get swollen with milk for some people. I'm hoping that doesn't happen to me though. That would look awfully wierd trying to wear tank tops and such. It's also funny that my post seem to come off fake I guess I just have a drama type of life.
