5. Breast Changes
A week or two after conception and implantation occur, a woman's breasts may swell and feel sore and tender. The areolas, the areas around the nipples, may become darker in color. The breasts may feel fuller and heavier, and the veins may be more visible.8NHS Choices, NHS, www.nhs.uk/pregnancy/trying-for-a-baby/signs-and-symptoms-of-pregnancy.,9‘Pregnancy - Signs and Symptoms.’ Better Health Channel, www.betterhealth.vic.gov.au/health/HealthyLiving/pregnancy-signs-and-symptoms#signs-of-pregnancy.
These changes occur in response to rapid changes in hormone levels.2‘Early Pregnancy: Signs & Verification Services.’ UPMC, www.upmc.com/services/south-central-pa/women/services/pregnancy-childbirth/getting-pregnant/early-pregnancy. Once the body adjusts to the hormonal changes, any discomfort is likely to subside.1‘Symptoms of Pregnancy: What Happens First.’ Mayo Clinic, Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research, 11 May 2019, www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/getting-pregnant/in-depth/symptoms-of-pregnancy/art-20043853.
