I had this pretty bad a few weeks back...not sure what it was but it was gross

and I couldn't even brush my tongue w/o vomiting! I would suggest gum or candy...good luck

I haven't had this personally, but a friend of mine was telling me when she was pregnant, certain foods left a metallic/tangy taste in her mouth.

A metallic taste in your mouth is listed as one of the first symptoms of pregnancy in one of my pregnancy books.

Yes. I feel like that all the time. I am brushing my teeth and mouth washing constantly, even though brushing my teeth makes me gag. Its so gross though.

I've had this for a few weeks now. Always in the afternoon, every day. It's driving me nuts! I wish it would go away!!

I just have a metallic taste in my mouth when I drink water. Makes me not want to drink water anymore!

Same problem... Lifesavers and Jolly Ranchers are a big help for me.

Wow, I feel better knowing all of this. I was baffled after this happened to me and didn't realize it was a symptom! Thanks!

This happens to me with almost everything I eat and I've had it almost the entire pregnancy so far. Suxors. I don't like sugary candy to mask the taste because when the candy is gone, it leaves a bad aftertaste itself (and it's bad for my teeth). I can't stand the taste of gum right now either but I will chew a half piece of sugarless for a few minutes when I need to be around people at work and that helps.

I even get a bad taste after I brush or use mouthwash. It's not usually a metallic taste, either, although I've also had that. It's just a gross, enhanced post-food aftertaste.

Yep, I've had this. I think just starting last week is when it didn't happen all the time. At first it was all the time after everything I ate even gum. I was brushing teeth and tongue after almost everything I ate.

I read somewhere that it's actually due to PNVs.
