If personal hygiene wasn't so important to me...

LaLaaaaLaLaaaa
in 2nd Trimester

I would consider never brushing my teeth again.  Seriously, this gagging thing is sooooo first trimester, lol.

Not that I wish this on anyone else, but please tell me I'm not the only one.

    Between the gagging and the bleeding I've really lost interest in brushing my teeth. WHICH, btw used to be one of my favorite hobbies.

    I'm beginning to think the old gag and dodge with my brush is a new part of my daily life.

    I threw up from brushing my teeth almost daily with DD, the entire pregnancy!

    Nothing feels more gross than barfing with toothpaste in your mouth and then having to re-brush.

    I have had this issue for years, due to the amount of flouride in most toothpastes (and when you consider that flouride is a toxin...).

    I had discussed it with my dentist/oral surgeon, he said that brushing without toothpaste is fine and works for most people, and that plain brushing and using mouthwash a few times a day is just as good if not better than using toothpaste.

    Switching to flavored (kids) toothpaste did it for me :) I have the strawberry one, got it at Target. They had a huge variety. Would love to try the bubblegum :)

    Still only brush my teeth when absolutely necessary..gross.

    Oh yeah, I'm in the same boat.  In fact, last night it actually had me poised in front of the porcelain throne willing myself not to throw up.  It was bad.  And I'm a freak when it comes to oral hygiene -- I normally floss religiously and it's driving me crazy not to be able to!!
