The only reason I stayed away from gum while I was pregnant is because chewing gum traps gas in your stomach which would lead to more nausea and vomiting for me.
There are a bunch of gums that contain a artificial sweetener called aspertame and it's also in diet sodas, it can cause cancer, seizures, birth defects and damage to certain areas of the brain. I personally don't like to chew gum for this reason I always have to check what ingredients they put in the gum before I buy it.
@worlds.okayest.mom, I’m glad I wasn’t the only one. Plus with all the extra saliva, it just doubled it. I couldn’t handle it. I felt like I needed the sucky hose from the dentist.

It won't do anything. I drink Dr Pepper and stuff like that. There are more harmful things than gum

Gum disease can cause a stillborn, but there is no way gum can cause a stillborn.
