| Seriousness: | Quite bad |
| Discomfort: | my nose is always runny and i am always sneezing! It is so annoying and my nose just might fall off...lol. I am 16 weeks now and i don't think it is going to go away until I deliver. |
| Treatment or advice: | I have tried Benadryl, Chlortrimeton, Nasalcrom...all seems to work temporarily. I feel bad if I take them all the time. Don't like to take meds if I don't have to. |

| Discomfort: | I recall having really dry sinus passages that prompted me to go to the Dr and thats how i found out I was 6 weeks pregnant! My Dr told me that some women get it early one due to the hormones going craxy! |
| Treatment or advice: | I was prescribed some nasal spray called Rhino. Its the only one pregnant women can have. It worked well! Things got better after week 10. |

| Seriousness: | Unbearable |
| Discomfort: | My nose is always stuffy! It's driving me insane..I get up in the middle of the night to blow my nose, because I can't breathe properly! |
| Treatment or advice: | I'm led to believe this is normal and will pass around the same time morning sickness would have..if I'd had it. But I don't, so I guess a stuffy nose is a fair trade. It's really annoying though...`oh the joys!` |

| Discomfort: | Acne on my chin, cheeks and nose. Normally get a very minor bout during ovulation but it's gone again by the time period comes. Just as this clears up more spots appear, angrier than the last lot! Also my skin is way more oily. |
| Treatment or advice: | Wash face with a really good cleanser, use a very light moisturiser, wear make up less frequently, drink more water, don't touch area unnecessarily. |

| Discomfort: | Constant sinus/ blocked or runny nose - comes and goes over a period of weeks. This may be a result of a super-sensitive sense of smell; or heightened allergies due to your pregnancy. |
| Treatment or advice: | Be sure to get lots of fresh air; stay away from second-hand smoke and dust. Sensitivity to pet hairs might also be a reason. If the irritation continues, your doctor may suggest a homeopathic nose spray. Chewing gum has also proven helpful (perhaps the mint/menthol helps clear the sinus). Increase your water intake - a lot of fluid can be lost via a runny nose and/or over-production of mucus/ phlegm. |
