Bad hygiene haven't really brushed by teeth during pregnancy. Toothpaste seems to make me sick now.…

Be careful with that. Oral infections can get into the bloodstrwam, which would very likely affect your baby.

bloodstream*

even brushing them without toothpaste would be better than not at all. I'm not sure 😞

I use the kiddie toothpaste right now since mint doesn't agree. I agree with @tylersbaby30

@tayek I'm definitely getting a dental checkup now would they be able to tell if I have an infection? Also would they be able to see if it's in my bloodstream? All my blood work has been normal so far and I'm 31 weeks.

Gingivitis is a common ailment but easily prevented. Your dentist can help you choose gentler products. (Mine suggested kiddie toothpaste & more frequent cleanings--during pregnancy I will receive a total of 3 cleanings by my dentist versus the regular every 6 month visits.) Definitely schedule a check and try in the meantime to find a paste tbag you can stomach. I currently use Crest Kids. The bubblegum flavor is gross to me BUT it doesn't make me puke like regular adult paste.

that, not tbag* (Typing on a phone lol)
