Thankfully – did not experience the loss of nails.

Not strange, considering the demands on the iron reserves to make the baby and the placenta. That our bodies are capable of doing that is such a miracle !!

  I do remember my iron being low during and after pregnancy, but even more recent my iron was low. Luckily my nails are still there

My finger nails broke easily but I didn’t have low iron levels

Wow, that is strange, but it does make sense when you think of the low iron thing. I got carpal tunnel with my first.

Never heard of this one. But it makes sense given how many essential nutrients in your body gets sucked out to create a new human.
My eyesight got really bad from pregnancy hormones. I never had to wear glasses before.

pregnancy really does odd things to us!

I’ve never heard of this one either!

Never heard of this one before. I thought it was weird I started getting massive nose bleeds but apparently it’s fairly common.

  Yep – I got these too.

Oh, very unusual indeed. I had no idea this could happen.
