I've noticed my nipples have become really sensitive lately, even to touch. I'm wondering if this could be an early sign of pregnancy? Has anyone else experienced this before their missed period?
Yes beta, this is a very common early sign as the body starts preparing for the baby. If they feel very sore, you can gently apply a little warm coconut oil after your bath, but do not rub or massage them.
Oh my god, yes! Mine were so incredibly sensitive in the first few weeks that even my shirt touching them hurt. Does this sensitivity ever go away, or does it stay like this throughout the pregnancy?
Yes, it's a very common early indicator. If you have a busy day at work, wear soft cotton liners inside your bra so that the rough fabric of formal clothes doesn't irritate them.
I literally panicked when mine became super sore and thought something was wrong with me! But it turned out to be my very first pregnancy symptom, so relax, it's completely normal.
It is absolutely a sign, dear. To get some relief, just switch to soft, padded cotton bras without underwires, it helps a lot and is very pocket-friendly too.
They absolutely are, as the milk ducts start developing very early on. Just wear seamless, breathable bras to avoid any friction and keep the skin moisturized.
In my case, my nipples became extremely sensitive and heavy about a week before my period was due, and then I tested positive. That was my main early symptom.
