My biggest pregnancy complaint!

The 5 minutes I spend brushing my teeth each day are literally the worst 5 minutes of the entire day! My gag reflex gets so sensitive and it gets worse throughout the pregnancy. I remember this with every pregnancy! So really, if this is my biggest complaint, I'm really pretty lucky!

Geez - is this your biggest complaint for the whole pregnacy? Aches and pains are mild compared to teeth brushing? You are made of tough stuff woman!

I must not have accurately described just how bad the gag reflex can get. It's pretty bad!

The aches and pains are expected, no one should have this hard of a time brushing their teeth!

I had that with the twins, not this one, but with the twins. Even now though I can't put things like paper, or cloth in my mouth (you know to hold when your hands are busy) because it brings on the gag reflex...funny eh?

How do you find swallowing the prenatal vitamin? Some days I'm really good about it, and some days I have to swallow it like 3 times cause it keeps coming up....

Wonder why the gag reflex gets so sensitive like that eh? Strange........

I'm glad your feeling good besides it though!

I have no problem with the prenatal. I rarely will even get a prenatal aftertaste, but within 30 seconds of teeth brushing I get such a strong retch.

Pregnancy has some odd side effects that's for sure.
