Pregnant nipples show the following changes: The breasts may show tingling, swelling and itching, which are normal physiological phenomena in early pregnancy. From a few weeks after pregnancy, pregnant women will feel swollen breasts, even some pain, occasionally squeezing the nipples and producing thick yellow colostrum. And as the breast hypertrophy, the breast will grow something like a lump, which is normal for mothers. From the time of implantation, there are hormonal changes in the body, and the breasts respond accordingly, preparing them for later lactation. Milk may begin to be produced in the breasts in the second trimester of pregnancy, so the nipples will produce a small amount of white milk. There are no new changes in the breasts in the third trimester, but the swelling will increase and become more severe.
