They get totally sore when you’re newly pregnant
Then they get all vein-y. Seriously — they look like a road map. Hawt.
In preparation for giving birth, the nipples get creepy-dark so they stand out better to your semi-blind little baby — it’s like you’re a human bulleye
Your nipples can crack and bleed during those first few days of nursing (that was me — ow, ow, ow!)
They hurt (like a bitch!) when your milk comes in. Nothing sexier than crying, “Aughh! Don’t touch me!” at your husband

And what about when your baby starts pinching and pulling on those nipples and stretch the skin – yeah, sexy talk 😉
