  • Hi l was at the dreaded dentist 2day and she said my gums were inflamed but tht could be down to the pregnancy. It might be worth going to your dentist its free just now anyway. xx

  • oh i had to take all my rings off this morning because my fingers are swollen... maybe its that? x
  • Hiya..I had really sore bleeding gums and it was down to the pregnancy hormones (surprise!!) and my wisdom tooth was coming through and had a slight infection. I was given antibiotics and told to use a soft manual toothbrush and use small circular motions and not to scrub up and down. I rinsed in some salt water aswell (not nice but took the stinging away). If you have an NHS dentist its worth having a check up while its free, my dentist has booked me in for some work after baby is here as its still free up to a year after.

  • Hi I'm 28 weeks pregnant and i'm experiencing the exact same thing! It started a few days ago, I thought it was just an ulcer on the back of my gum but its got worse. I think its my wisdom teeth coming through but its really painful so I know how you feel. I've booked for the dentist but cant get seen until april 7th!
