Are you/did you experience varicose veins as a symptom of pregnancy?

So yesterday i found out why have been having so much vaginal and cervical discomfort. We already knew she was sitting really low causing the discomfort but now because of that and her getting bigger i have developed varicose veins on my vulva (vulvar varicose veins). They are going to keep an eye on it i need to ice it and lay down putting my feet up as much as possible. Part time at work was discussed but at this time dont think its possible. Talked to my friend who has had similar situation to mine except her varicose veins were on her upper thigh but her daughter too was really low and she ended up on my bed rest. This is my second but did not have as near as much discomfort. Please share your stories i would like to know just how common it is.
