30 Unexpected Things That Happen to Pregnant Women that No One Talks About

#13 Varicose Veins

Varicose veins are usually not much talked about during pregnancy. You may be surprised to notice that it is pretty common and a part of pregnancy.

The water content in the body increases during the pregnancy and that could be one of the reasons contributing to the showing up of varicose veins.

You may feel uncomfortable or may experience pain especially in the body parts where they develop. These are most commonly seen in the genital area, rectum legs, and thighs.

Strangely there is not much that you can do to prevent them. However, no matter what discomfort it may cause to the pregnant woman, the silver lining is that it is not harmful to your baby.
