I can't brush my teeth

I gag/hack and 8 times out of 10 throw-up. What are other ladies with this problem doing?

 

I just brushed my teeth and threw-up 3x. I saw the juice I took my folic acid and DHA supplements with 10 minutes earlier in there plus the nuts I ate a 1/2-1 hour before. Should I take the supplements again? Can more than the suggested amount hurt if I didn't throw the supplements up?

    Yes! I can brush them but it's really hard to brush my tongue because I start to gag. I'm not even brushing as far back as I usually do. I told DH he's not going to get head anytime soon unless we wants me to puke on him. Poor DH :(

    I would prob take your supplements again. But you should call your doctor to ask what to do when this happens. It's always best to get it from your doctors office. Good luck!

    Honestly I wouldn't take the prenatals again. You are not sure how much was absorbed already. As far as brushing your teeth have you tried some mouthwash ? Or different toothpaste? GL!

    Ugh, this is definitely happening to me, too, especially when I brush my tongue. I'm avoiding brushing as far back as I usually do, and making up for it with flossing and mouthwash!

     Just remember to go to your usual 6mos cleaning appointments, and I think it'll work out!

    This is me too :(

    I specifically asked my dr if I should re-take my supplements if I threw up right after taking them. She said no. Unless you see it floating around in there, don't take another one. High amounts of certain vitamins can actually be worse.

    My doctor's website recommends using a child's tooth brush since they're smaller. You may also want to switch toothpaste, too.
