yeah, when you are pregnant your blood circulation is increased.. you will see more darker veins and also causing your skin to extra sensitive to touch/pain..and believe it or not, if you usually wax your skin to remove hair, it will hurt twice as bad.. i guess that was the only symptoms that i experienced that led me believe that i may be pregnant.. i usually wax my legs so since i am used to it, it does not hurt at all but that day, i waxed and i felt like the whole skin bring ripped off.. i was like " mmm... what the heck..? it shouldnt hurt  like this.." and sure enough, i got my BFP the following day...

yea, i'm 8 weeks pg. and have that, also on my hands and arms too the veins poke up more. BUT I didn't start getting the veins until I was about 6 weeks pg.  Test 3days to 1 week after your expected AF. You should get a definite result then.

I tested positive @ 3 days after missed AF.

Yeah that is a symptom. Ive heard girls on here describing their chests as "roadmaps" They do get darker, seem to stick out more. And the itchiness is probably hormones clashing with dry skin. Get some creme...but theres nothing you can do about the veins lol
