I'm talking bout boogers

** If you are grossed out by boogers, then do not read this graphic post! You've been warned!

Here is the latest and greatest on the pregnancy front: I am having sinus/nose problems. I have had weird nose dealings for about 2 weeks now. Over the weekend, I woke up and got a bloody nose. Now I seem to have stuffy sinuses all the time, and what feels like huge boogers in my nose at all times! When I wake up every morning, I blow my nose and DO have huge boogers,-bloody gross ones! The only time I can get a productive booger producing blow is in the morning- after that I always feel the need to blow my nose, but nothing comes out. I can press my nostrils together and they will stay shut- that is the severity of this problem, people.

I'm not really sure what to do about this- it is quite uncomfortable and I have never experienced nose problems before in my life. Perhaps I have allergies? Or are my sinuses going crazy because of the baby in my belly?

Hi! Found your blog on links through someone elses while blog surfing the other day.

Anyway, just wanted to tell you I had the same thing with both my pregnancies - I have a 2 week old little girl and a 2.5 year old little boy.

It was almost like my body thought pregnancy was an allergy or something!

Anyway, once I had them, it went away, so odd.

I was the same. I just had a baby 8.5 weeks ago. I had the boogers during pregnancy, and cleared right up when I had him. You really don't realize the amazing transformation your body goes through until the baby is out and you have time to reflect, it all goes back to normal :)

Like previous people, I had sinus issues during both of my pregnancies too. It went away after I had both boys. Totally annoying though when you're in the middle of it.

i had sinus issues as well. i used breathe right strips to help me breathe at night. they are so great. i would still have to blow my nose in the morning and it was pretty bad.
