Stress not related: The development of varicose veins during pregnancy, unfortunately is not related to stress. This comes from swollen veins in the pelvic region, and will recede, )go away), after the pregnancy. The prominence of the veins is not of major concern, but watch for inflammation of the veins suggesting a possible blood clot. Wearing support pantyhose, with compression, will help with the pains.
