Ulcers on tongue?

I am 26 weeks and have got sore blisters/ulcers on the tip of my tongue.

My 18mo is sick so has been up for the last two nights, so I am completely shattered. I also have that scratchy throat thing you get before getting sick yourself (grrr for the 3rd time in this pregnancy!!)

Could the ulcers be a rundown thing? Or should I worry?

Also, how can I get rid of them?!!

Thank you

So sorry - that's miserable for you!! I'm always prone to ulcers when I'm run down, so could very well be the cause of your's. Haven't heard anything about ulcers being a cause for worry during pregnancy, but maybe chat to your midwife?
I've found that Triamcinolone Acetonide Dental Paste is phenomenal at healing ulcers:

(sorry, don't know how to do a link).
It might be prescription only and I don't know if it's OK for use during pregnancy.
Hope you feel better soon!
