I have vericose veins behind my right knee? I think during pregnancy anything from the abdomen down can get vericose veins. During my first pregnancy I had one tiny vein that became highly noticeable just below my skin. It's become noticeable again with this pregnancy.
I have veins on both my left and right sides by the hip bones. The right side veins are more prominent. I've read it is normal; it doesn't happen to all women.
Are you sure they're varicose? They're probably just really pronounced from the extremely high blood volume. My belly and boobs look like a roadmap!! LOL!! As far as varicose, I did blow a valve behind my right knee with my 2nd child that left me with a nice swollen varicose vein on my right shin.
