I have never had any nose bleeds before but during this pregnancy so far, I have had 4 nose bleeds..and I was not rubbing that hard as I normally do. I do have an itchy nose on and off and I do rub really hard usually to settle the itchiness once and for all but these few times I don't think I rubbed that hard. Three times while brushing my teeth and the 4th this morning as I was about to go to work. The bleeds don't last long...after blowing a few times and wiping off, they just stop. But my thoughts do go wild...do I have cancer of the nose...what will happen to my kids especially my Arielle who is so attached to me....then I feel kind of sad. Jon has asked me to see the Doc but I don't think I want to in case its serious. Just want to have my baby first and then see how. I searched the net and noted that some pregnant women do get nose bleeds very often due to the increased blood flow in their bodies. So I will just put it down to that although this is the first such experience. Will maybe highlight to my gynae this week when I see him.
Another first is a bad flu and cough. I have never really have it bad and never really seen a dr. for a few days of running nose and cough but the last 3 weeks..I have had a bad flu, went to see my GP, took some medication, forgot to inform my gynae during the last visit and down with a bad cough and phelgm now. Took the med given by my GP last time as I did not complete the course in case it affects my babe even though I was told its pregnancy safe. Oh well ...I just pray my babe is alright.
Wanna just have my baby safe and sound, healthy and normal, and it's a long way to go....2 more mths!

Get well soon! Pray that it is nothing serious lah...
I know its hard, but try to relax and sleep early :)
ya thanks....praying so...want to see my kids grow up...
I know how you feel...about wanting to see the kids grow up and such....I had the same feeling not too long ago.
At any rate, I had nose bleeds too when I had Christopher but not with Caylee....if that's any solace.
Maybe the flu and blowing hurt some blood vessels and now it is easy to break.
Will keep you in prayer.
You are thinking too much. But it's normal. I do have such thoughts before. Hope you are getting better? What did the gynae says about your nose bleed?
