My first pregnancy took two teeth and this pregnancy is about to take 3 more. Thankfully they are…

Dont worry ladies I brush my teeth twice a day or when I have tooth pain I brush my teeth everytime I have tooth pain. I'm not over here with nasty breath its just since I can't take prenatals while pregnant because they cause me to vomit. With or without iron, gummy, pills or powder. I don't know why my body won't take them while pregnant 😒

you just need extra calcium, it's what baby is pulling from your teeth

Don't feel bad. My two bottom wisdom teeth are impacted and I keep getting a tiny bit of infection in them. Nothing to serious becuase I have no swelling, or pain... But I have to brush after each meal, and rinse with hot salt water and do peroxide and warm water rinses each time after a meal... It's aggravating, but they're still completely under my gums... And there's no way in hell I can get them surgically cut out, being awake, and limited pain meds. I won't be able to eat for a week or more after. So I'm doing all I can to manage them until after the baby... Which sucks...

@ilyric, Its actually due to my saliva. Due to the extra fluids going on through the pregnant body. Pregnant woman have 3x the saliva as a normal human being and its also 3x as acidic so it damages the teeth. I thought it was due to my calcium until I talked to my dentist about it because I've only lost teeth due to pregnancy and with them being 7 years apart I asked and my dentist said sadly this is the reason.

@klove2016, I'm in the same boat. Just basically waiting for little man to make his appearance and then its off to the dentist to get my wisdom teeth pulled out.

Yep!! I plan to breast feed, however, if I can't due to antibiotics or pain killers, I'll have no choice but to formula feed. :-/ but having infection is no good... And I just got my braces off after 4 years... So I don't want my teeth going crooked from the wisdom teeth trying to come in, or worse, loose a back molar from them 😳😭😱

But I'm gonna be a hurting pup.. And my face is gonna be so swollen 😭😭 I'm actually more scared of getting them cut out than child birth.

@klove2016, Oh my gosh I didnt even take that into consideration. We plan to breastfeed as well. My dentist said having "laughing gas" is safe while breastfeeding but you are so right the pain from being swollen from getting your wisdom teeth pulled out lasts at least a week. I feel for you. Braces are expensive to have. I dont blame you for not wanting anything to ruin what you worked so hard for to get fixed. Honestly I do believe teeth pain is worse then child birth so I understand completely.
