Brushing Teeth and Morning Sickness?

I'm over 15 weeks. The worst of my morning sickness seems to happen when I brush my teeth. I've tried changing toothpaste and also tried making sure I breathed through my nose to minimise the effect of gagging but I can't seem to get away from throwing up.





On top of this, (I suffer morning sickness alot everyday), it's always the worst when brushing. I end up having force burps coming up along with throwing up and choking on whatever comes up. The morning sickness for the rest of the day is not as painful.





Does anyone else suffer from this? Has anyone tried anything else that has can cut this down?

Brushing Teeth and Morning Sickness?
congrats on your pregnancy!!!!





i had the same problem. i switched to the regular cavity protection by Colgate and that helped some because it was the most bland tasting toothpaste i could find. but I'm sorry to say that you will probably get sick every morning as long as you have the morning sickness. i was sick all day everyday for the entire first semester. and it was the worst while i was brushing my teeth. some mornings i would just skip brushing the back of my tongue so i wouldn't throw up.





hope this helps
Reply:I had the exact same problem with my son and daughter, unfortunately in order to beat bad breath I started chewing gum and skipped the tooth brush.
Reply:Yes








Try changing your tooth paste





Brushing later in the morining
Reply:When brushing your teeth it doesn't help to change toothpaste because that isn't the problem. The natural gag reflex is what is happening and it should soon enough pass.
Reply:I had severe morning sickness 24/7 for 14 weeks straight and brushing my teeth helped me to not throw up..lol, I dont know. I brushed my teeth alot at that time. have you tried a mild vanilla toothpaste instead of mint?
Reply:I can't remember the brand, but there is a toothpaste that is like with a touch of lemon or citrus or something. I know it sounds digusting, but a friend had some when I was visiting %26amp; was pregnant %26amp; it wasn't nearly as bad as regular minty toothpaste.
Reply:Dude when you brush your tounge do you gag?Try getting not to far back on the tounge. Or maybe you have a tastia tounge.Hope this helps
Reply:The very same happened to me with my son. It slowly but surely went away. I tried to wait as long as possible after I ate to brush my teeth. Use imagery, too, and go somewhere nice in your mind.
Reply:Use listerine, and dont brush your teeth until after you eat. Dont brust your tongue for a while, let the listerine handle it.





It really will pass.
Reply:I had the same problem I finally switched my toothpaste to Crest vivid white. It helped alot but i still felt quesy when i brushed. But dont stop brushing try also waiting just a bit after you wake up and have breakfast then try brushing. It finally stopped after 3 months for me!! It could be worse I also had a bit of blood when i spit but its normal, don't worry it gets better!!!! Good Luck!!
