ahhh my poor nose!

I've been getting nose bleeds since about 16 weeks, and still getting them! Not like pouring down but just everytime I wipe it, especially in the morning. Now its soooo dry (so hot and humid where I live) I feel like I'm constantly sniffiling and wiping it to make sure its not bleeding, and have my fingers in it because of Thr dry skin. so annoying! Anyone else?

Vaseline!! Yes, I'll try that! And my gums bled horribly in Thr first trimester but my nose didn't start until after. I really think it has a lot to do with the humidity too, we turn our AC off at night and open the windows since its been cooling down a little at night. Maybe I'll get a humidifer!

Yes it does get swollen, I was reading about it in a couple baby books. Mine doesn't feel swollen either. I don't think it's significant enough to notice the swelling. It might be a combination of all 3 things and that's why you're having the nose bleeds.

I get nose bleeds too i went 2wks straight bleeding it's normal for your nose and gums to bleed during pregnancy due to the increased volume of blood flowing through your body, if your nose is dry you can put vaseline inside so it doesn't feel irritated

Really ? I didn't know that about the swelling. It doesn't feel swollen. I just thought it was increase in blood , and the dryness because everything seems to get dry during pregnancy. Its really uncomfortable and annoying. I need to put something in it.

My nose is stuffy a little when I wake up and I sneeze a lot when I wake up too. Today when blowing my nose I saw a little bit of blood. When being pregnant your nasal passages get swollen. I'm 14 weeks.
