does anyone know what it means when you get baptized and you start bleeding?

ok so i got baptized a while back and i was always curious about something. When I got baptized I was submerged under water. After wards they picked me back up and started praying but i started bleeding from my nose, like right after ward, and it wasn't a lot it was only a little bit of blood like a couple of drops. Anyways, i just wanted to know if anyone knows if this is some sort of sign or something like that cause i've always felt that it was...i just want to know what you think about it...maybe i'm looking into it too much but idk something tells me that the blood meant something...idk...plz let me know....thanks

Update:

guys, i'm aware about nose bleeds and how they are caused. If i wanted to know about nosebleeds i wouldn't of asked the question in the religion section. so let me make something a little clearer. As stated before i only bleed a few drops...about 3 (give or take one)... and nobody seemed to notice it. If you're only here to make silly, absurd remarks on the causes of nosebleeds please feel the need NOT to answer this question and simply move along. I only want to hear SPIRITUAL answers. Again. Thanks.

    OK, spiritual answer. Your nosebleed has become a reminder of the blood that Christ has shed for you. Redemption has always required that blood be shed. There's a "little vs. a lot" thread that runs throughout the Bible in this redemption. Noah received a sprinkling of rain while the rest of the evil world around him got their own baptism by immersion. The Israelites walked on dry ground, with maybe a little Red Sea spray while Pharoah's army perished behind them. You received a nosebleed, and through Jesus' stripes, lots of blood, you were healed. Your baptism was a mark upon you, the nosebleed was a lesson to carry with you. Do not forget it.

    Sometimes younger people can be very prone to nosebleeds. It doesn't happen to everyone though. If you pinched your nose before you went under, that could have caused it. Oddly, the pressure change could have caused it too. When I was younger I spent a week visiting relatives in Colorado and got eight nose bleeds simply due to the altitude change.

    it meant you may get nose bleeds

    the vessels in your nose are thin and if pinched to hard can cause bleeding

    no its not a sign

    some people get nose bleeds real easy

    It sounds like the beginnings of the stigmata. If it proves true over time, praise God, for being chosen for this special divine gift.
