Nosebleeds?

[simpsongal]

Anyone else getting these?  Seems to be a more recent symptom.

I just bent down to pet my pup and sprayed blood all over his face.

I haven't even intro'd over here yet, but was taking a peek and saw your post. I am very early pregnant with my second, so I don't know if I will have the nose bleed issue this time around but it was horrible with my first. It got to the point where I went to see an ENT doctor and they cauterized some blood vessels in my nose on two separate occasions. The cauterizing didn't really seem to help, much to my dismay, but it literally stopped being an issue the day I gave birth. I probably had 5-10 bad nose bleeds a week, for some reason it happened almost every morning in the shower. I don't know that it's an extremely common symptom, but it's definitely a symptom of pregnancy. Just keep tissues with you at all times because they really do come out of nowhere. Good luck.

I have had 6 nose bleeds since becoming pregnant. Each time I had them I would get 3 within 24 hours and it was a lot of blood.

Yes all the damn time! It's because we have so much excess blood - that's just where it comes out. There's really not much you can do to stop it either. I hold a tissues and put on Vaseline and that helps some

No nose bleeds, but I also have a lot of bloody boogers, and have since the very beginning. And I am so congested at night. I really hope that goes away quickly after birth.

I'll try some Vaseline - that stuff is a miracle. I'm finicky about my nose - I like it to be 100% clean at all times. I might have to back off the noseblowing a bit for the sake of my dog

Same as @supertpenny. No actual nosebleeds but been dealing with bloody mucus since the beginning. It's actually picking up a bit more now too.

Yes. This was my weirdest symptom, by a landslide. It happened throughout the second trimester and maybe a little into the third, I can't remember anymore.

I haven't with this pregnancy, but now that you mention it, I do remember having them occasionally with my first pregnancy. Another lovely symptom...

[fortnightlily]

36 weeks currently. I've had one nosebleed my whole pregnancy thus far. Sounds like it's pretty normal.

[magpie]

yes, I've been getting them too. I had them a lot when I was a kid too. It's weird to be a nose bleeder again after all these years!

[snickers]

Oh no, I see some blood when I blow but that's all. I have been expecting them since 8 weeks when this started happening.

[browneyedgirl9]

Yes! In my first trimester I got them a few times, I havent gotten any lately. But I always have a litle blood on the tissue when I blow my nose.

I had them early in my first pg, maybe because my first tri was allergy season that time. Pregnancy rhinitis has been just as bad this time though, having my nose back to normal is one of the things I'm looking forward to.
