Omg. All I can taste is metal!

Gah. I'm 8w today. Since my symptom check in this morning I have all of a sudden got the worst metallic taste in my mouth! Yuck.
I feel like my mouth is watering and not in a good way. It's really making my nausea worse and I just can't get rid of it. Feel like I want to spit constantly.
I don't remember having this with #1 and if I did, it came and went quickly.
Anyone else have this and any tips on relieving it even temporarily?

  • Yeah I hate that! I lived off of jolly ranchers last time!!

  • I get it every once in a while but if I chew some gum it helps.

  • I've tried brushing my teeth, mouthwash, etc but it just comes back as soon as minty wears off. Meh.
    Gonna try buying mints and boiled fruit sweets to suck just to distract me from it.

  • I always got that when I took tums
  • Especially the yellow ones.
  • I have that also and actually was experiencing. It before i knew i was pregnant what has helped me is water with a little lime in it.this also helps with nausea
  • I find that sucking on lemon heads is helpful to fight that metallic taste (and it helped me last pregnancy with my MS).
