pregnancy nosebleeds

During the first few weeks of pregnancy has anyone experiecnced nosebleeds? I've been reading about it but never heard of this happening before I looked it up. It doesn't seem like a common symptom. I'm only about 7 weeks and this past week I've had a few nosebleeds, I've never had them before. I'm hoping it's normal and will stop soon. Any advice???

Try drinking extra fluids to prevent the mucous membranes and other tissues in your nose from getting dehydratedCan nosebleeds affect my pregnancy?Nosebleeds in pregnancy may be linked to an increased risk of heavy bleeding after the birth. One large study found that the risk of heavy bleeding was about one in ten for women who had nosebleeds in pregnancy, compared with one in 17 for women who didn't.

Anyone else experience nosebleeds during pregnancy? I've had one just about every day for the last several days. I've read they can occur during pregnancy. Wondering if anyone has tips for preventing them?

I've had a few throughout my pregnancy. They're normal. We have lots of extra blood in our bodies because of baby, and the veins in our noses are very tiny and break easily. A fun symptom nobody ever tells you about lol.

Why do nosebleeds occur during pregnancy? What months do they occur in? When do they stop?

Over the last several days I've had several nosebleeds... what is this about?

I hear it is normal to have nose bleeds during pregnancy, something my midwife warned me about. Try not to worry, the body is a wonderfully weird thing. Every week something new happens to my body. Pregnancy is crazy!

Yes it is normal I've had nosebleeds with my first son throughout my whole pregnancy n now hes a healthy 2 year old!

Nosebleeds are very common during pregnancy for two reasons. Number one, your blood volume increases by something like 40% while your pregnant, which can cause more pressure on the blood vessles in your nose and number two, your nasal cavity is more prone to swelling and dryness due to allergies and minor infections during pregnancy, which can both cause nosebleeds. I haven't had any myself, though I have had a little more "stuffyness" than normal. Take care!

Nosebleeds are very common in pregnancy. Pregnancy increases blood volume which can worsen nosebleeds. Try the humidifier and see if that helps. You can also talk to your doctor about it.

As anything, if concerned, I would mention this to you OB. But again, from what I have read, nosebleeds are common in pregnancy. Below if from Babycenter on Nosebleeds. http://www.babycenter.com/0_nosebleeds-during-pregnancy_255.bc "Pregnancy can cause the blood vessels in your nose to expand, and your increased blood supply puts more pressure on those delicate vessels, causing them to rupture more easily.

I understand nosebleeds are normal during pregnancy, but is it still okay when it last 20+ minutes? During the nosebleed there were two big clots one in the beginning and the end and a steady flow through out it. After it was done I felt dizzy and started seeing some spots. I have had them before, but they are normally less than a minute. Just wondering if I should be concerned at all.

I'm 27 weeks and everyday for the last week I've been having nosebleeds could this becos i have low blood pressure? has any one else been having them?

Is anyone else experiencing nosebleeds? I'm 19 weeks and I'm having them a lot lately. I remember having them with my 1st pregnancy (a girl) 11 years ago. I'm wondering if this has anything to do with the baby's gender. We aren't going to be finding out this baby's gender until it's born. I can't remember if I had nosebleeds with my 3rd pregnancy which was also a girl. I never had them with any of my boys.

Hmmm, not really bloody, only the snot (sorry tmi)

I also never got nosebleeds, but this entire pregnancy I have bloody snot rags every time I blow my nose. Sorry if tmi.

Pregnancy can cause the blood vessels in your nose to expand, and your increased blood supply puts more pressure on those vessels, causing them to rupture more easily n such!

So I'm 36 weeks and does anyone else get nosebleeds like every other day? A lot of my friends and even my mom said they never had that before with pregnancy and that I'm weird lol. Also my hands hurt when I wake up in the morning. Like a real stiff feeling in my hands and it really hurts. Even though my doctor said it's normal I just wanna see if anyone else experiences these things too...???

Anyone had chronic nosebleeds during their pregnancy? It's so annoying. How about chronic heartburn? Lawwwwdddd I feel like my esophagus is going to melt! Sheesh. On another note, despite the heartburn, I need my hotsauce. Gir!!!

I'm currently a little over 25 weeks along. In the last few weeks, I've had several nosebleeds! I'd literally be sitting on the couch or in the shower, and my nose starts bleeding out of nowhere. They normally only last 5-10 minutes, but yesterday I had one that wouldn't stop for 20 minutes! I've read they can be common in pregnancy and wanted to know if anyone else has experienced this.

I hope so cause I have the same issue

Is that a symptom or early pregnancy. I seem to remember that with my last pregnancy but not 100% sure it was this early. I am about 13dpo. Anyone had this happen this early?

J bleed so much and chunks of blood clots just fall out my nose.I know nosebleeds are common during pregnancy but like this. I get on average about 5-8 a day. And I'm not talking light showers here I'm talking my nose gushes. When I put my head down it flows like water and when I put my head back I feel like I'm a vampire. Is it something I'm doing? I try pinching it off but nothing helps it usually stops on its own after 5-10 minutes. It shouldnt take this long right?
