8. Nose Bleeds

Quite common during pregnancy due to the hormonal changes in the body, as more blood moves around the body to supply both mother and child. 

Commonly seen in hot/warm weather as the tiny veins under the skin/in the nose tend to tear easily, or even when one has a cold, as they blow their nose. 

Small occasional amount of nose bleeds is not harmful to mother/baby; however large amount or recurrent nose bleeds needs reporting to health professionals for attention.
