Breast changes

hi all,
I've searched this and found lots of stuff about tenderness, swelling, and itchiness but I couldn't find anything about lumps, sorry if this is a repeat. (Will be a long post)
I'm having b/g twins and I'm 23.6 now.
Last year docs found a large tumor in my left breast. No big deal, benign and it was just removed. However, I was told I had a high likelihood of having breast cancer at a young age. I was 26 at the time. My breasts have always been quite large, so it was actually an accident that they found the tumor. Fast forward to now, I do monthly breast exams, etc. I just did my exam and found two small lumps. I am obviously calling my doc first thing in the morning. BUT I was wondering if I'm stressing about nothing. Does anyone else have really lumpy breasts?

Re: Breast changes
I've had a few lumps show up that dissipate after a while and was told it could be duct irritation while they're gearing up to produce. I agree with you that it's worth seeing doc about, but don't psych yourself out. Definitely could be nothing.
