1st Trimester

metalicly taste

Yuck!  I thought would go away but it hasn't so of course I googled it and I guess it's more common than I thought.  Anyone else?  I read drinking oj for the citrus or pickles for the salt can help.  Maybe that's where the whole pickle and pregnant thing started Smile

Re: metalicly taste

  • Yes with my first pg.  I was always chewing gum...mellon flavored too!

  • it is pretty common. Usually form your prenatal vitamins.... I when i would burp with my 1st DS, it would taste like i was burping up a rusty penny.... not really sure why... but if your naot already, i would take prenatals with food. Maybe that will help
  • I'm not on PNV and I have the horrible taste in my mouth, I'm trying the orange tic tacs to see if they will work.  The taste is blah and hopefully it will go away soon.
  • I've had that a few times myself! Really gross.
  • Hasn't your doctor suggested you take PNVs?

    thats what i was wondering.

    Are you just opting not to take them... for some people it has to do with their beliefs.

  • I've been on the same PNVs for about 3 months (the Target brand) and never had this before.  I did take it today with lunch rather than on my afternoon break so we'll see how that affects it.
  • I totally have this taste, too.  Almost all the time that I'm not actually eating or drinking.  Interesting about the OJ because I've started drinking tons of grapefruit juice.  It's almost the only thing that actually tastes good (so tired of m/s nausea). 
  • I've just had a really bad taste in my mouth the last few days....my breathe smells awlful no matter what I do and it tastes bad all day long!  ??? I'm eating pickles right now...lol...

  • I had that too, for about a week. Luckly it has gone away (for now!) I brushed my teeth like five times a day to try and get rid of the taste.?
  • Not to answer for str8ota, but since she is offline... she mentioned before that she was on bedrest from MS and women with MS that bad often don't take PNV because it makes the MS worse.  It is possible that that's why she isn't taking PNVs.
  • I had it with my first pg and it was horrible(especially sicnce I'm a dental assistant).  I was always overdosing on breath mints and gum.  I haven't had it in this pg yet(knock on wood)
