My wonderful OB confirmed it was just my milk ducts forming and that they usually form at the same time so it was good that I called. I feel silly for going in but I feel at ease now.

I'm throwing this in as a word of warning because it's the only reason I knew about the milk ducts thing - no one warned me. I actually called me mom's midwife friend because I thought maybe something was seriously wrong with me.
When my milk did come in, I was in so much pain. Not in my breasts, but under my arm. It was huge, and swollen, and since there's not real outlet like your nipple you can't just "milk" it out normally. I don't know if this will happen to you, but be prepared in case it does. DH helped me keep a warm compress on it and massage it down into the breast.

Just saw this and glad to hear all is okay. You can never be too sure and it's always good to check things out. Someone close to me learnt the hard way.
Hoping everything is ok! With my first I had lumps so big I could barely shave my armpits. He's seven now and I still get them off and on when I'm menstarting. Hopefully it just has to do with your milk
