Breast changes

I was just wondering exactly which part of your nipples change colour when you are pregnant?  Is it the very centre part or the larger outside part?  Sorry I don't know the technical names!  Also what colour do they change to?  The centre of my my nipples have changed to a dark brown purple colour (I'm not sure that I'm pregnant yet but are getting stronger symptons everyday).

it's the areola, or the outside part that darkens, but I think the nipples darken along with it.  at least mine did.
