Frequent toddler nosebleeds.

[tracyk]

Anyone else's toddler have them. My ds seems to have 1 every 10 days or so. Sometimes during the night -so he wakes up with his face covered in dried blood! Looks like a vampire!

Is it anything to worry about - they don't bother him and he doesn't seem anaemic or anything.

My toddler also has nosebleeds. He is 3 now but has had occasional nosebleeds since being much younger (maybe a year old). He tends to have a few over the space of a week or so and then none for months. They also tend to be at night (for dramatic effect I think!), but they don't bother him and the doctor said not to worry. Every 10 days does seem quite often, but if you're worried mention it to your hv or gp.
