Possibly the most bizarre pregnancy side effect yet, just diagnosed by my dentist...

Just wondering if anyone else had developed this and if they had any handy hints on getting it to go away again, it's rather sore when I eat acidic foods like strawberries and tomatoes, which is a pity as they are both my favourites...

hey, I have had this for as long as i remember and it has got even worse with pregnancy...it sucks doesn't it (especially as I crave nectarines!! lol) the only thing find helps is yogurt, milk or lots of water after you have eaten anything that stings, i'm sure someone once told me it could be linked to a vit d deficiency so it may be worth checking that out too?

I also get this terrible taste in my mouth, especially after eating sweet foods. Do you think that could be related?

Can't say i have had that i'm afraid so can't help there... is it a metalically taste? that can be quite common in pregnancy?
