Hi, this is my third pregnancy and I had a swollen lymph gland under my right armpit the last pregnancy and now this one. I went to the doctors the first time round and was assured it was perfectly normal and related to the changes in our bodies, especially producing milk. I was expecting it this pregnancy, but it can be so uncomfortable - not to mention unsightly! It makes it so difficult to shave your armpits with this horrible lump, us women are so lucky the things we go through!
