Spider veins?

Leah6120 · August 2015

Ok stm's.. I need to know the truth. For those of you prone to spider veins, do they REALLY get better after the baby comes? I had a few even prior to getting pregnant but now the ones I had are way worse and there are new ones popping up EVERYWHERE. I am 15+ weeks and a little scared of what they may look like in the next few months. Im pretty sure this bothers me only, but i still dont like them! I tried searching on this already and I didn't see anything.

I can't answer whether yours will get better on there own, but I can tell you if they don't, and you hate them they are easily removed, ask your doctor/dermatologist about it, I had one removed from underneath my eye.

I have horrible varicose veins during pregnancy, and those do get better. Some of the really bad ones were still around, but barely. It looked like I had a small permanent bruise.

I didn't have them, but a friend of mine did. Witch hazel is suppose to help, you use it as a topical

I am expecting our 4th and with each pregnancy new ones seem to appear on my thighs. Unfortunately those have not gone away

I have pretty bad spider veins even pre pregnancy, partially from standing in a kitchen for the pay 12 years, the other is hereditary. They can be easily removed, and after baby gets here I will look into it. Mostly because of vanity .

@Leah6120
I think both, but I'd research it just to be sure.

@ashhsa that's great news! I def have one on my cheek I will be zapping if it doesn't go away.

@jezygal I'll look into witch hazel. Do you use it now or after the baby comes?
