it just means you are going to start growing boobs before too long. There are 5 stages to breast development. Here are the stages and here is the website so that you can go look and see what stage you are at. Good luck!
The preadolescent breast (known medically as stage 1 per Tanner's sex maturity ratings) consists of a small elevated nipple with no significant underlying breast tissue. (Tanner's stages are based on studies of white English girls. An American survey found that black girls tended to advance more quickly.) Genital and pubic hair development is also classified by Tanner.
Puberty begins (usually between ages of 8 and 13, average age is 11) with the development of breast tissue and pubic hair. With the hormonal changes of puberty, breast buds form. This second stage of breast development is the breast bud stage. Here, there is elevation of the breast and nipple as a small mound; the areola begins to enlarge. Milk ducts inside the breast begin to grow.
In stage 3, there is further enlargement and elevation of the breast and areola (with no separation of their contours) The areola begins to darken in color. The milk ducts give rise to milk glands that also begin to grow.
Next, there is projection of the areola and nipple to form a secondary mound (stage 4).
In the mature adult breast (stage 5), there is projection of the nipple only (though in some woman the areola continues to form a secondary mound).
The breasts of an aging woman diminish in size as the milk glands degrade. The breasts often become more saggy as this occurs and as the effects of gravity pull the breast tissue downwards.

they are sensitive because they are beginning to grow, sweetie... sit back and watch the magic appear!! meanwhile, you can do alotta things so they won't bother you as much. ask your mom or dad to get you a training bra or sports bra so when you walk or run or jump, you can't feel them as much.... also, when you sleep, try to sleep either on your tummy or on your back and see which works and feels better for you!
