I discovered a new pg symptom...

nose bleeds. We have had a very dry winter here so I'm sure that adds to it but I'm not sure I've ever had a nose bleed with out getting hit in the face with a basketball. Felt a littel stuffy the other night and blew my nose kind of hard and came back with a nose bleed that wouldn't stop for at least five minutes. I did a little googling and learned that with the increased blood volume among a few other things we are more prone to nose bleeds in around 8/9 weeks... go figure! :) Oh and using a saline spray has helped tons!

Anyone else having some lesser know symptons of pregnancy?

  • haha is it sad that I had to read that twice before I got it? cute bad pun... hope they clear up. I haven't had any problems since starting the saline spray and the sinus headaches have gone away too :)

  • Nose bleeds happen about 5 mornings a week for me! Gross. Another fun one in the morning is the tunnel vision that happens when I stand up. Fun times :)

  • I had them when I was pg with DD and I got one the night before my bfp with this pregnancy which is what made me test.

  • I was having the same problems in the morning but I went and bought a humidifier and now wake up with a stuffy nose. Huh?  At least it is not blood anymore.

  • No real nosebleeds, but every time I blow my nose, the snot is bloody. It really freaked DH out the other day to see bloody tissues in the toilet, poor thing.

  • I have the same problem.  We just bought a new cool mist dehumidifier and that seams to be helping.  If I am really stuffy I will use the Netti Pot in the evening. 

    That always helps.

  • I've had this too.  Plus my nose has constantly been stuff since I got my BFP.  To the point where I sleep with my mouth open b/c I can't breathe at all through my nose :(
