bloody nose?! ugh, awesome!

Has anyone else been having consistent bloody noses? It hasn't been full blown nose bleeds, just seems like every time I blow my nose, it's bloody. I know they're common, and are due to us pumping more blood through our systems...but seriously, when will all these awesome, super attractive preg symptoms end?! haha

Re: bloody nose?! ugh, awesome!

  • Yes! Everytime I blow my nose it looks like a murder scene. I didn't have this issue with DD, so I'm thinking it's a combo of the pregnancy and dry winter air. Using a humidifier helps at night at least.

  • Yep, same here. Doesn't help that it's winter time and the heat in the house is drying the air out even worse.

  • I got a bloody nose a few days ago for the first time in my life. It scared the heck out of me. I chalked it up to pregnancy though. So fun! :)

  • I started getting these a couple of months ago, and the day I discovered my hands covered in blood, I insisted that we get a humidifier. Now, it hasn't "cured" me, but it has made a world of a difference. (We only run it at night.) If I can feel it's going to get bad, I'll put Neosporin on a cue tip and coat the inside of my nose for some relief. I tried the saline spray, but it didn't do much for me.

  • Yep the joys of pregnancy!  I have been also running a humidifer at night and using vaseline on the inside of my nose as well.

  • Ditto on the murder scene when I blow my nose, though I'm also having actual bloody noses about twice per week. I just had one at 4am this morning. I was up to pee and blood just started pouring out. Awesome.
