Sickness and nosebleeds

Since my morning sickness has started it's triggered a nosebleed both times so I'm battling being sick and trying to control the nosebleed. Anyone experienced this and should I be concerned at all?

Thanks

I used to be bulimic and I suffered with regular nose bleeds during that time. For me it was because I had burst some blood vessels in my nose from the pressure of vomiting a lot. It was harmless in my case and it did stop after I recovered. If you're worried I'd have a chat with gp or midwife to reassure you. I hope you start feeling better soon.

I only ever get nosebleeds when I am pregnant. Most days I get a nosebleed. Some days they are horrific. With all three of my pregnancies it was nothing to worry about. Just extra blood flow combined with a weak vessel in my nose. Both times (as the third is still not here) the nosebleeds stopped when the babies arrived.

It's becos of the increased hormones in your body:

I'd never had nosebleeds until this pregnancy. It's horrible but from what I read quite normal!

I had nose bleeds in my last pregnancy and it was the worst first thing in the morning, in current pregnancy I’m having constant gum bleeds but apparently it’s normal x

Yep, I'm another who never gets nosebleeds except daily when pregnant. Annoying but nothing to worry about, apparently.
