I keep waking up with this weird taste in my mouth, when i brush my teeth in the morning and evenings my gums start to bleed.
I also feel really exhausted, and sometimes nauseous in the mornings.
I can't really remember my symptoms when i fell with my DD (didn't find out till i was 12 weeks). and i don't get any money till end of week so can't do test, i think my last AF was in about 23rd June and was only couple of days and i normally last 5days.

What do you think?

you could just give ur gps a ring and they can tell you the times of the family planning clinic, but if they can fit u in i would go to the gps

I rang DRs this morning, but can only have emergancy appointment and this isn't really an emergancy. so would have to wait upto 3 weeks for appointment.
The reception would be shut now so will have to findout sometime tomorrow.

For the horrible taste, I'd suggest tictacs ... they worked for me in any case ... and I know what you mean about the taste: it's vile!

TheMuppet · 09/07/2007 18:02

It really is Vile, making me feel more nauseous.
TicTaks i'll give em a go!

TheMuppet · 09/07/2007 18:08

some of the women said it was due to the acid reflux of being preggers is why they had the taste in their mouths so advised on taking rennies

TheMuppet · 09/07/2007 18:47

My dad has sum rennies - so will have to go pinch few of his hehe

Do you think it could be hormones as to why i'm feeling down & stressed?

OP posts:
suezee · 09/07/2007 19:24

probably the fact u think u might be pregnant and are anxious to find out.......and hormones

TheMuppet · 09/07/2007 19:38

True - and also the fact my DP is so impatient doesn't help, he wants his PS3 and haven't been round to give it to him yet. so getting a txt saying where are you every 5 mins and now he's sulking coz i haven't been round yet. grrrr
