I've been trying to do a search on this, but I'm only getting porn sites back when I try!

My nipples have been erect for the past 3 days on and off, but mostly on. Is this a symptom of pregnancy? Or is it a crazy psychosomatic symptom that I am dreaming up?

Thanks!

Im sorry but I LMAO when I read "all I got was porn" HAHA But to answer your question, Im not really sure. BUT I can say that my nips also have been more "perky" recently and look more open. As you know tho, I am spotting so who knows what my body is doing. All I DO know is that it's ticking me off! Im hoping the best possible to you and sending big ++++++++++ your way when you test! Keep me posted! HUGS!

Hi! I just visited the doctor last week and found that I was indeed pregnant! I was suspicious when my period did a no-show, and after a week and 3 days straight of nausea(which i rarely get and never with my periods)and being VERY tired, I took an EPT (Error Proof Test)--sure enough it was positive. Well everything is confirmed now- I'm 7 weeks pregnant and my husband and I are getting excited. We've chosen our names-- Evan Cole if it's a boy, Shayla Dawn if it's a girl.--to answer your question, my nipples too are "perky", esp against like my husband's t-shirt which I sometimes wear at nights or a silky nighty. They're tender now, they weren't at the beginning of the pregnancy, those first few weeks. Last week the nausea was horrible-sorry to dampen anyone's spirits :)

But today I'm back to work. We'll see if this lack of nausea lasts :)

Just takin it easy, snacking on crackers and jello, drinking lots of water and trying, when I can, to eat more protein, salads, starches...

Good luck to everyone out there who's sharing this wonderful journey as well...
