I'm getting tired of...

gagging while brushing my teeth. It's getting old. Fast. I gagged easily before (nightmare at the dentist!) but now it's ridiculous. I can barely stick my toothbrush in there without be gagging. I can barely brush my teeth! It's rather annoying.

No point to this except to rant to someone. My DH just laughs at me. He's nice that way! Smile

  • Seriously....I'm gagging just reading this lol. I've been the same exact way! The thought of brushing seems like more of a chore than anything!

  • I also have this problem. I have always gagged when I brushed my teeth but now it is even worse. Once I gag now, I start dry heaving, four or five times. I realized it happens when I brush the back of my tongue, so have stopped doing that for now and switched to an alcohol free mouthwash after I brush (sans the tongue).

  • Me too - it's horrible.  My gag reflex is so sensitive these days!

  • I do it too. I have stopped brushing my tongue except for the very tip for now.

  • I know the feeling! I have been fine with everything except for when I brush my tongue or when I floss. I'm kinda embarrassed about it. It's been kinda better lately but we'll see... I have a dentist appointment this afternoon for a regular cleaning. Hopefully no up-chuck surprises. Tongue Tied
  • Yep, I totally feel your pain!  The majority of times I have thrown up this pregnancy have been after brushing my teeth!  Soooo tired of it!!  I've tried switching tooth pastes, doesn't help.

    I am doing the exact same thing...I don't ever feel clean enough without brushing my whole tongue...hopefully within the next couple of weeks we can all brush our mouths without gagging!
