I recently took some pics now in my ninth month of pregnancy and I noticed that my nose has become a combination of Ms. Piggy and Pinocchio, like it doesnt even look like me, Omg, am horrified. Is this normal? Well it return to what it was?

You should worry, its normal for women to swell during pregnancy...
It’s normal for your body to produce and retain more fluid during pregnancy, particularly during the last few months. This can cause slight swelling (called edema), particularly in the legs, feet and ankles, but also in the hands and face. This swelling may be worse towards the end of the day or during hot summer months.

Extra fluid in your body helps prepare you for pregnancy and delivery. It allows your tissues to handle the growth of your baby. It also prepares your pelvic area for labor and delivery. Extra fluids in your body account for much of the weight gained during pregnancy. You body usually get rid of them in the days after delivery.

Mild swelling of the legs, hands and face is normal during pregnancy. But call your health care provider if you have severe or sudden swelling, particularly in your hands or in your face around the eyes. This could be a sign of a serious condition called preeclampsia (also called toxemia) that causes high blood pressure and fluid retention.

I hope this was helpful for you. GOOD LUCK
