Strained Pectoral muscle from always sleeping on my side with these huge boobs

Woke up today and my left pec muscle is killing me. I've been sleeping with a bra on to support the girls and yet this still happened.

Do I heat or ice? I just have to sit here with my hand under my left boob supporting it so it doesn't pull on my pec.

Sorry for the rant... Can't wait to have my single D's back and to be able to take advil

    I don't have advice but I do feel your pain. I have G cups here and I gave up on being comfortable a few months ago :(

  • I am also having pains thx to my D's. Got my first blister under my boobs yesterday! Ive been putting baby powder under my boobs to help them from rashing, or the feeling of a rash coming. I miss my c's!!!!
  • Try putting a soft pillow between your breasts while you sleep on your side.  It limits how far the "upper" breast can move and strain everything else, and allows the lower one to rest on the mattress without the weight of the other on top of it.  

    Sleeping with a bra might help, but most soft bras aren't made to support lateral weight; their support structure is designed to hold weight going vertically (on a standing body).
