What about that horrible taste in your mouth? Any ideas when it goes away?

Hi

I'm 14 weeks pregnant with my second baby. After 12 weeks of hellish nausea, vomiting and indigestion I'm now left with a horrid taste in my mouth 24/7. Has anybody been through this? Any idea how long it lasts or how to get rid of it. I live on chewing gum at the moment but that just helps increase the hunger:-(

I don't want to depress you but I had the horrible taste until DS was three or four months old! There is a good reason for it (something to do with hormones?) - perhaps someone medical will come on to enlighten us?

I was afraid this would end up being yet another pregnancy hormone thing. Didn't have it first time around though so I was convinced this was payback time for bragging about a perfect first pregnancy...

when brushing my teeth my gums would bleed a lot and i would get a horrible taste in my mouth all day. i found rinsing and gargling with salty water a couple of times a day helped.
i know its not the same but HTH.

Hi I had this for the whole nine months
Was really sick and ended up in hospital and had to take pills (cycyzine[sp?]) also for 9 months.
I'm pleased your nausea has subsided but boy that taste is awful, hope it goes soon.
