Nose & Gums Bleeding?

Nikkoli110

Anyone else? I thought at first the nose bleeds were because of allergy season starting and kicking my butt, but now when I brush my teeth, my gums bleed. I read they are both common in pregnancy. I was just sitting at my desk, sneezed, and then my nose started bleeding all over the place. Gross. Just wondering if anyone is experiencing this?

The nose bleeds I experience quite often due to some sinus problems. And especially at night when we have a fan running in the bedroom. I sent DH a text earlier today as a matter of fact saying "We really need a humidifier in our bedroom. My nose bleeds constantly now!"

The gums I am told are a common occurance with pregnant women. I had my 6 month check up at the dentist last week and he told me not to worry and that it does happen.

Both are totally normal.  My nose bleeds every time I sneeze too, which is not so great especially when I am in a meeting at work.  I have heard that humidifiers really help, and allergies can totally aggravate things. I have not had any experience with my gums bleeding (yet) but lots of ladies have.

Yes, I had a nose bleed every day in the 3rd tri, it got old fast.  And I had sensative gums too.

This falls under the list of things I hope are different for this pregnancy.

I get the gum thing, no nose bleeds. But anyone else experiencing that awful metallic taste in their mouths? Doesn't matter how often I brush, and it's way worse after I floss. SO disgusting! Got my teeth cleaned the other day and was gagging.

My nose bled a lot in the beginning, but now that the weather isn't so dry, I haven't had that problem recently.

Not full on nose bleeds, but every time I blow my nose it's blood tinged. And my gums are super sensitive this week, so I feel you.

Yeah my gums bleed like crazy, it's awful.  And every time I throw up, my nose starts bleeding, it's the worst!  We just put a humidifier in our bedroom so hopefully that helps.
