Your breasts can feel tingly but not be pregnant when you have changes in your hormone levels as your breasts are sensitive and your endocrine system that controls your hormones is complex.

Tingling in the breasts is also associated with pregnancy due to hormone changes but your breasts can still tingle when you're not pregnant.

Nipple pain occurs when you have an aching, burning, throbbing, tingling, or tender sensation on your nipple.

Most nipple pain is normal and nothing to worry about and it can also be caused by an allergic reaction, eczema, hormonal changes, sexual activity, or sunburns.

Many women experience a tingling sensation in their breasts, especially around their periods, early in pregnancy, or if they are breastfeeding or taking drugs with hormones.

The feeling, which can be in one breast or both, can resemble “pins and needles” on the skin or have burning characteristics.

Breast tingling in pregnancy starts as early as within a week or two of conception in pregnancy.

The tingling in the breast in early pregnancy is a result of pregnancy hormones increasing blood supply to your breasts.

The part of the breast that hurts in early pregnancy is the nipples which can hurt the most or even be at least the most sensitive during early pregnancy.

The breast soreness during this time can also be greater than what you might experience just before your period.

The soreness and symptoms might go away as your body adjusts and acclimates to your pregnancy.

2 week pregnancy discharge will look like healthy vaginal discharge which can be thin, clear or milky white and smell mildly or have no smell.

The 2 week pregnancy discharge is called leukorrhea.

The symptoms that you have at 1 week pregnant are mild cramping, breast tenderness and fatigue although most people have no pregnancy symptoms at 1 week.

Typically 1 week pregnancy is measured from the first day of the your last menstrual period.

Some odd and weird early pregnancy symptoms include swollen or red nose, seeing blue toilet seats, nosebleeds, lack of appetite, lightheadedness or dizziness, irritability, Sciatica and Carpal tunnel syndrome or even a burning palm.

The first 72 hours of pregnancy symptoms are: late period, positive pregnancy test, implantation bleeding, tiredness, bloating and twinges/cramps.

Pregnancy also known as gestation is calculated as 40 weeks and starts from the first day of your last menstrual period.

Pregnancy is classified into 3 stages known as trimesters.

The gender and inherited characteristics of the baby are decided at the moment of conception.

Early pregnancy symptoms at 4 weeks of pregnancy include a missed period (often one of the first signs of pregnancy) a metallic taste in your mouth. sore breasts. nausea – also known as morning sickness, although you can experience it at any time (read about morning sickness in week 6)

Early pregnancy (first trimester) abdominal symptoms include nausea/morning sickness, cramping, constipation, heartburn, bloating, and gas.

Pregnancy begins when a fertilized egg attaches to the wall of the uterus, and pregnancy symptoms may begin in some people as early as a week after implantation.

A pregnancy discharge is typically milky white or clear—but if it's a different color, it doesn't necessarily mean something is wrong. For example, you may see some spotting in the week following conception.

If you typically have an irregular period, you'll want to take a pregnancy test to confirm.

Most home tests can detect hCG as soon as 7 days after a missed period.

A pregnancy test detects hCG levels in your urine and shows if you are pregnant.

Know that a false negative is more likely than a false positive.
