just had a dental cleaning

Good news, no cavities.  However, my gums were in not-so-good shape.  I know I have beeen slacking with all of the soda, juice, and whatever else I have been eating and drinking.  The dentist reminded me to be more viligant about brushing and flossing.  He said a lot of pregnant women develop gingivitis and cavities due to all the changes in our bodeis...I used to drink a lot of water but still cant stomach it.  So, I'm sore but at least I'm relieved....

    I just went to the dentist yesterday and she did say my gums would be a lot more sensitive while I'm pregnant. They definitely bled more then they usually do as she was cleaning them. Ouch!
