Nosebleeds?

[Fluffhead]

Is this normal? I have been having ALOT of them in the last 3 days and while annoying, I just want to know if it is hormone related or something else. Thanks in advance.

marsupial - I want to say that nosebleeds during pregnancy is pretty common, but can not for the life of me recall where I found out this bit of info. Everything is more vascular when pregnant, causing more bleeding. Such as bleeding after sex, brushing teeth etc.

I recall when pregnant with DD I woke up went to the bathroom & had a mouth full of blood. It really freaked me out! Normal. Just rinsed with really cold water & it stopped, but had bleeding gums when I brushed my teeth for awhile. It went away.

Hope the nosebleeds stop!

Yep, totally normal, especially at this stage in the pregnancy. I had to quit wearing white shirts with my 3rd baby because I'd just be driving down the street and all of a sudden my shirt would be soaked with blood. I felt like I was exploding!

I have been having nosebleeds too. They are annoying aren't they? I think part of it is the time of year. The air is dry which reeks havoc on your sinuses.
