Women generally ignore this symptom considering sign of other conditions. However, if you are expecting, this sensation will gradually increase.
Vaginal discharge: If you are pregnant, signs like milky vaginal discharge with a musky odour can be visible. During this time, increase in the levels of the progesterone hormone lead to the vaginal discharge that prevents bacterial infections and allows good bacteria to survive down there.
Changes in the size of your breast: The size of your breast starts to increase during the initial stage of pregnancy. This is due to volcano of hormones rushing to your breasts after embryo transplantation. During this time, you also may experience inflammation and tingling sensation around your breasts. Moreover, your nipples will enlarge and grow darker.
