hmmm... You could just try different lotions...or maybe some hydrocortisone cream in case you are having a small allergic reaction. I also have a lot of pain right underneath my bra line. I dont' know why, and haven't found any way to improve it... add in the cracked and itchy nipples and intestinal pain, and I can't wait for September!!!!

had a few people today tell me that i could have either cracked or bruised a rib. maybe thats it for you as well? as for your nipples do you put lotion on them as well? if not then maybe some of your own breastmilk (if your lactating) will help. alot of doctors have recommended it to me. i shouldnt be having an allergic reaction, unless its to the bugs up here? i just moved so some things are diff.

My first LO broke one of my ribs and that wasn't pleasant at all. It's entirely possible you have a rib injury. For the itching, try vitamin E cream. That can help as well. and make sure you're drinking plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated.

Not wearing a bra (or one that doesn't fit right) could cause breast pain because they aren't being supported properly. I know I started wearing my nursing bras during my last pregnancy because I didn't want to buy new regular bras that weren't likely to fit after the fact.
