Hi ladies. I'm only 3 days po and nipples seem to be harder loads more than normal? Is this something associated with ovulating? I know it must be too early for pregnancy symptoms but unless I'm freezing this doesn't usually happen. (Although my nipples were what tipped me off with my last baby) xx

It’s a very common tww symptom. It’s due to increasing progesterone. I had sore boobs/nipples with both of my pregnancies. I’ve now been ttc for 18 months and get sore boobs/nipples most months but not been pregnant any of those times. That’s not to say you won’t end up being pregnant, just that this symptom isn’t related, especially as at 3dpo, a fertilised embryo wouldn’t even have implanted yet. Good luck

That's how I knew I was pregnant. With my first my nipples felt like they do when you're freezing cold and they hurt so much I had to get my hot water bottle and hold it against them to stop it. It was my first symptom with my second too.

Thanks ladies. Let's hope it's more than hormones xx

It’s not a pregnancy symptom. 3 days post ovulation you wouldn’t have even implanted yet. It’s hormonal.
Good luck x
