Is nose and gums bleeding common factor during pregnency?
I totally have both going on. It's common during pregnancy. And unfortunately I don't think there is anything to fix it. Just one of those things.
Reply:Sounds very bad to me
Reply:nah its a pregnancy inflictino. I got both from early on up til now. Im 28 weeks.





sometimes the nosebleeds get pretty bad but my gums arent too bad.





If it because really troublesome or getting in the way of day to day activities, talk to your doctor, but on a whole, its very normal in pregnancy
Reply:me too omg i thought it was just a stange thing i never thought it was becasue i was pregnant!
Reply:Bleeding gums is a very common sign in pregnancy due to the hormones in your body. They may be tender also. Just brush very gently. This should clear up after the baby is born. Perfectly normal.





As for the nose bleeds, I dont think that is quite as common, so perhaps a trip to the doctors would be a good idea, or mention it at your next ante natal appointment.
Reply:this is completely normal!!





There is something called "pink toothbrush" caused by bleeing of the gums while brushing. :) Dont worry all normal...





But if this really worries you, talk to your doctor about it :)





Good luck!!
Reply:yeah its normal because when i had it i went to a doc she said maybe its high blood pressure she said if the blood tests and the pressure came in normal then there us nothing to worry about so everything was normal.


nosebleeds do tend to occur more often during pregnancy. Pregnancy can cause the blood vessels in your nose to expand, and your increased blood supply puts more pressure on those delicate vessels, causing them to rupture more easily. Although it's unpleasant and inconvenient, an occasional minor nosebleed is generally harmless.





You're especially likely to get a nosebleed when you have a cold, sinus infection, or allergies, or when the membranes inside your nose dry out, as they do in cold weather, air-conditioned rooms, airline cabins, and other dry environments. Trauma and certain medical conditions, such as high blood pressure or a clotting disorder, may cause nosebleeds as well.





to avoid getting a nosebleed


• Drink extra fluids to help keep all of your mucous membranes well hydrated.





• Blow your nose gently. Aggressive blowing can lead to nosebleeds.





• Try to keep your mouth open when you sneeze.





• Avoid dry air, especially in wintertime or in dry climates, by running a humidifier inside your house and not overheating your bedroom. Also stay away from irritants like smoke, which you should be avoiding anyway.





• Use a lubricant to prevent nasal dryness. Some experts recommend petroleum jelly. Others suggest a special water-based nasal lubricant that is available over the counter at pharmacies. Saline nasal sprays or drops can help, too.





• Don't overuse medicated nasal sprays or decongestants. They can dry out and further irritate your nose.
Reply:The bleeding gums is common, as is rotten teeth unfortunately, because your baby is taking your nutrients - calcium in this case. It might be an idea to ask your midwife if you can take any supplements
Reply:I have both symptoms...Every time I brush my teeth is looks like someone punched me in the mouth....It's normal. It's a way of your body getting rid of all the excess blood in your system. You should read the book "What to expect when expecting", it's very informative and list every pregnancy symptom from a-z.
