My boobs hurt! Is this normal?

When something hits my boobs, it REALLY hurts. And when I press down on them, they feel hard! I’m almost 11. Is this normal?

 

Yep, it’s normal. Your boobs are a little sore when you press on them or run into something because they’re growing. Not fun, but definitely a fact of life through your tween and teen years. It’s absolutely nothing to worry about, but if it would make you feel better, your doc can check ya out and make sure you’re in tip-top shape.

 

For now, avoid doing the things that hurt when your breasts are extra-sensitive. Or, try wearing a bra with a little bit padding to give ya some cushioning. Sleeping on your back or side instead of your tummy could give ‘em some relief, too.

Ok, I also did that last 1. I've asked her b4 but that was like 2 years ago so I sent her an email...I'm nervous what her response will b can u tell me something close to what she'll say. And if she says no , when do I ask again? Thanks!😄😊




Hey girl, what was her response when you first asked? If she just didn't answer, then you definitely wanna ask in person so that she can't ignore the question. And if you're really worried and feeling uncomfortable about not having a bra, just tell her that.

Okay, i think my breasts are starting to grow. They're tender, like when it hits something im like OW! Do i need a bra? i think i do. But how do i tell my mom im thinking of emailing her but i have NO words.......PLEASE REPLY I NEED MAJOR HELP!!! :/




Hey there, chica! If ya think you're ready to start wearing bras, that's fine. There's no specific time when you have to get them. You probably wanna start off with a training bra, just to get used to how they feel. And if you're stressin' about telling your mom, don't worry - that's why she's there. It may be a little awkward to start off the convo, but the best way is just to talk to her whenever you two have a minute alone. Tell her that you think you're ready to start wearing bras, and ask her if she'd like to take you shopping. Be to-the-point and honest, and you should have no problems.

MOD MOD Why do my boobs hurt before my period? It is really bad and I can't run without pain, which is a problem for gym. Also, I have acne on my back and chest and it is embarrassing in a bathing suit. I use medication for it, but it doesn't help.

 

Hey! the only way to really feel reassured is to talk to your doctor about all of these questions Smile To be honest, that's what we mods just have to tell you guys when you come to us with any health concerns. You may very well be fine, but since we're not doctors and we can't even see you face to face, it's not for us to tell you what's fine and what isn't. You know your body. Trust your instincts and talk to your doc!

ok so i know i just sent u one just recently but i just have there two questions do u think that since im only 11 i shouldn't be a 36c in bra size?all the other girls in my class don't really have a chest except for this one girl and i kind of makes mu unconfortable. also their also all really skinnier than i am but the same height and i'm probaly around (edited by mod). does that mean i'm overweight?




Hey girlie,

Every girl develops at a different speed! You should absolutely be a 36C bra size, if that's what you are right now. Your bod is going at its own speed and developing just fine Smile Plus, in a year or two, the girls are going to be so jealous of the fact that you have boobs - you'll probably get the attention of guys, and they'll wish they developed earlier too. Hang in there! As for your weight, the only person qualified to tell you if you're a normal weight is your doctor. If you have questions or concerns, talk to your doctor and he/she can tell you if you're in the healthy range! <3

ok so like i went over my friends house yesterday and i brought my sister with me cause their friends too and my sister and i are really close.so to get to the point they started talking about all the boys they like and i couldnt say anything because i don't like anybody! and i also started to think that i hear all the other girls at my school talking about who they like or their dating someone and that i'm the only one who doesnt like anyone!do you think that's ok or should the next time someone brings up the convo of boys should i lie and say i like someone? p.s. i'm 11 years old if your wondering so i'm not to comfortable with having a boyfriend




Hey girlie,

It's totally ok if you're not crushing on someone right now! Don't lie and say you like someone just to be part of the convo - just shrug and say I don't like anyone right now. If there's no one who seems attractive/interesting in your class, of course you're not gonna develop a crush! Don't force it Smile When you go to middle/high school, you'll have a lot more options and your taste in guys will probably change - so you'll find one soon enough. And remember, you can totally have a crush without wanting a boyfriend! You can like a guy without actually dating him - it's not a commitment just to have a crush Smile But don't pressure yourself into finding a crush if one hasn't popped up naturally! Everyone has their own taste in guys, and everyone has their own "timeline" when they develop crushes. If you're not into that just yet, it's no big deal!
