Common to have ear block during pregnancy?

I am in my week 28. But i have been experiencing ear block a while back and is like on and off thing. Is it common? Cause i do not have this problem before pregnancy.

Hi! It happens. I do see a respiratory doctor and at one point I had completely blocked nose when I was transiting to third tri. My doctor told me it's not uncommon to have blocked nose and also blocked ears for pregnancy. Partly due to hormonal changes and how they affect the lining of your nasal passage (which is also linked to your ears unfortunately). She told me she had blocked ears till the end of her pregnancy. I'm not sure if there's any remedy for blocked ears though :/ I only know of those that worked for my blocked nose. https://www.healthhub.sg/live-healthy/986/pregnancy-symptoms
