gosh i cant tell you how many nose bleed i got while pregnant. i still do. I never ever got them before nor with my other 2 children. Pregnancy does some weird things to your body. I asked my doctor, she said your body goes thru so much changes it happens. take a test and see. Buy a few. I took 5, all came out negative, took another a weeks later, it was positive. Good Luck!

Although nose bleeds are more common during pregnancy due to physiologic changes, a "bad" nose bleed is never something that should be ignored. Did it last longer than 10-20 minutes? Do you have them often? Has it reoccured since? Do you have any conditions that would predispose you to bleeding or take a blood thinner such as heparin? In the future, avoid dry conditions, maintain moist nasal conditions, and drink plenty of fluids. If you do have a bad nosebleed that does not stop however, it would be prudent to see your doctor. Good luck.

Well im 17 weeks pregnant and almost every other day when I blow my nose, i have alittle blood come down. But I havent gotten a nose bleed. I heard nose bleeds are a symptom but not sure if it goes for bad nose bleeds with alot of blood.

Yes... I got a few nose bleeds the first couple of months of my pregnancy. Had a couple that started with no warning at all and were pretty heavy. I had not had a nose bleed for years! It happens because of the increase of hormones in your system.

Yeah, i had nose bleeds when i was pregnant. And they were usually bad....lasted a while. FYI, if you drip blood on your clothing (as i did several times), it's easy to clean if you dab it with hydrogen peroxide. The peroxide "bubbles" up the blood. I had to apply it several times to fully remove the blood though. Oh, and It only seems to work when the blood is still wet.

I have heard that this is a symptom - although I did NOT have any nose bleeds! I would suggest you POAS to find out!
Good Luck!

I've never heard of that but anything is possible since your body is changing so quickly.
