A lot of times I find a bruise on myself, usually somewhere on my leg, that I have no idea where it came from. A lot of times we probably bump our leg or something and get bruised. If it's a deep bruise, however, I would think you would have remembered banging it because it probably would have hurt. Is Rich beating you up in your sleep lol? Just kidding of course, but is it possible that maybe when he rolls over in bed, he's accidentally kicking you? If you're a sound sleeper you probably don't even notice when it happens. I sometimes accidentally kick DH when I roll over, only I usually wake him up when I do. But he's a light sleeper. I don't know, maybe it's a possibility.

Are you on any new medication, or taking anything that might thin your blood ? Doing alot of kneeling, gardening, cleaning? Crushing grapes? Skulls? I have NO idea what it could be, but if it hurts and they seem really deep, it could be blood leakeage from small vessels. I'd ask yor Dr!

Keep us posted!

"Yulp, there goes no-knees Shawna!" is what they'll all shout when you go by! LOL

I actually have a big bruise on my arm that I have no idea how it got there...I noticed it this morning, but I was stumped...and I do get bruises for no reason; it may be losing weight..but I don't think that would apply in my case--all I'm doing is GAINING WEIGHT!! Grrr, I am so stupid!

Vitamin E, possibly? Maybe take a good multi-vitamin (if you're not already), or ask the pharmacist (or your doctor, if you're worried).
