Bloody Noses?


Okay not like dripping or anything but on two-three occations in the morning when i blow my nose there is a little blood enough to wipe at least 2-3 times only in one nostril. Maybe it has nothing to do with pregnancy but it never happened before I was pregnant. Anyone else have this problem?

Yeah I had this problem a lot, it's a combination of an irritated throat/airway lining and the increase in blood supply. It's nothing to worry about hun though it can be a bit frightening.

I've got it too. No worries. The air is getting colder, pregnancy can screw with your sinuses and you have lots more blood going through you

Common nose problems during pregnancy include stuffiness, a runny nose, and nosebleeds. These problems may start early in pregnancy and may continue throughout pregnancy.

The hormones of pregnancy may cause the lining of your nose and sinuses to swell, so you feel continually blocked up and stuffy. Hormones are also to blame for dilatation (widening) of the tiny blood vessels in your nose, a change that increases the chance of nosebleeds. This enhanced blood supply may also cause increased mucus production, so your nose is always runny.
