    Weird nipple question

    Ha, THAT got your attention!

    For the past week I've had unbelievably itchy nipples - do you know how hard it is to scratch a nipple?! They're not doing anything else apart from being insanely itchy, no discharge or anything. My boobs aren't even sore which makes a change!

    Any thoughts? Don't hafta be constructive, as long as they distract me *scratch scratch*

    Lol, sure did get my attention! But seriously, I get itchy nipples too, and I have no idea why! It sucks cos they're sensitive enough as it is. Not so bad if I'm wearing a bra, I scratch through the barrier. Or I kinda rub them. I probably look like a real weirdo lol.

    Not sure I'm much help but you're not alone!

    Those pesky nipple Arabs!!!

    I'm sure you know pregnancy can cause nipple changes......and I'm sure you've considered that.

    Personally I think it's the nipple Arabs...

    Well, PZ, it's about the only thing I can think of right now I'm about 2 seconds away from drawing texta marks around my aereolas (aereoli?) so i can see if they're getting bigger. Never had it before, but never had a sticky pregnancy either, so it's anyones guess! Did I mention I'm still at work for another half hour?

    Probably the nipple Arabs though, knowing my luck

    I used to get itchy nipples that would get a little scaly and you could scratch flecks of skin off ( I'm so sexy!). It was some kind of dermatitis and went away on it's own.

    Well I won't go on about it because I know what the (well meaning) hype and excitement can do, but my first preggo symptom with DD (feels INSANE saying that) was ridiculously itchy nipples...and hard, they were painfully hard.

    I still blame the nipple Arabs. They're sandy
