My nose is bigger.

MrsHughesNC

My face is definitely puffy and swollen in general.. but my nose looks bigger, and wider. Is this possible? If so, please tell me it goes down when the rest of the swelling does!

Mine got bigger even though everyone else told me it didn't, I knew it had. ?It did go back down after the swelling, but part of me feels that it didn't go all the way down again. ?Don't know if that is true or just me being self-conscious, but I feel your pain.

I read about this in one of the baby books, and it said that your nose does go back to normal after you have the baby.

You're like....pregnocchio or something. Instead of your nose growing b/c of lies, it's growing b/c of what lies beneath.

To quote McJ on the other board, you have such a way with words!

Indeed, you do, my dear terp.

LOL at "what lies beneath!"

My hairdresser told me about this when I was around 20 weeks or so. I wanted to cut all the hair off the back of my neck. However, he insisted we leave some wisps so you could see a little bit of hair from the front for when my nose spread. I'm not sure what was more disturbing. The fact that my nose would spread or the fact my male hairdresser knew about this.

Mine got wider too. I knew it had, but now looking back at pictures, I'm disturbed at how it looked!!

Good news is that it's back to normal!!
