Newborn Breast Lumps

Hi...

Is it normal for babies to have lumps under their breasts?!

Im sure i have read something about it somewhere so i am not panicking just yet but my baby girl is 9 days old and gradually over the last few days she has developed lumps under her breasts about the size of a marble.. anyone have any idea why/what it could be?!

Thanks

Michelle & Phoebe 9 days..

    Thanks for the reassurance, I have an appointment with the midwife tomorrow as I'll be day ten so due to be discharged from m/w care.. So I'll mention it then..

    I was just a bit worried because I myself suffer from hormonal breast lumps so I was worried I might have passed it on to her somehow! X

    Hi
    My best friends LO had this too, they got quite big, like small boiled eggs, and she was told that it was all to do with hormones and they would go away which they did.
    Congratulations on your baby girl, Phoebe is a beautiful name x

    My little girl had this. Just hormones. She also had a little period.
    Bless her!

    They're breast cysts, totally normal, will be gone soon. Congrats on your LO!

    I posted the exact same thing when my little girl was about the same age! She is 9 weeks now and they probably only disappreared completely a couple of weeks ago x
