Ooooh, painful !! I think you can use bonjela and the like but i'd still go see your dentist anyway !

defo go dentist. take ibuprufen, will help with pain and take any swelling down, my midwife suggested this for my spd so im sure it will do wonders for your gum, and she said it was ok to take just incase your worried. x

thanks guys, one thing i cannot bear is toothache!! with that and a poorly 3 year old up in the night then up since 530 am makes for a tired grumpy spuddy today!! lol

iv taken painkillers and the mouthwash feels great for about 10 mins after iv done it.

I thought preggie ladies weren't allowed Ibruprofen - check this out first missus!

G/C from DIJuly - sorry you were on the side bit!

According to the NHS pregnancy book in the bounty pack, ibuprofen is OK to take in the 2nd trimester... I can't count this morning ladies so don't know if you'r into 3rd yet or still hanging on in 2nd!

ouch!!... :-(
