What is that weird taste in my mouth? Anyone else?

Anyone else have this weird gross taste in their mouth? Maybe from drinking so much water. Its hard to explain but it just lingers (and yes I brush my teeth daily)!

I've often heard it referred to as metal mouth and it's totally normal and common. I got it pretty bad for a while there but it seems to have tapered off some in the past week or two.

I have it today (I get it on and off) and it tastes like I've been sucking on french fries and dirty pennies at the same time. SOOO disgusting. I'm going home to gargle some mouth wash.

I had this last pregnancy.

I've experienced something similar that's off and on... Doesnt' tast like pennies but it does taste like I haven't brushed my teeth in months even though I do at least twice if nor three times daily. Especially with this funk... I have no idea what it is.

Thanks for asking this questions, I've been experiencing this same thing! My mouth tastes awful and I'm constantly chewing mint gum at work to cover the taste. I notice it even more after I drink a lot of water.

I have it, as well. To make matters worse DH has told me that my breath smells differently (and bad). It was bad enough that I can taste it, but that little bit of honesty from DH was so not needed at this point. Anybody else experienced that type of brutal honesty?
