Do veins become more prominent when pregnant?

Yes, veins become more prominent when we are pregnant. They are blue and purple and the skin around them may become itchy. When you are pregnant, the uterus grows and pressurises the large vein on the right of your body and that increases vein pressure, thus causing veins to be more prominent and the skin around them to be itchy.

If you have had itchy nipples for almost a week and sharp abdomen pain with no bleeding and you want to know if you should consider yourself as being pregnant?
