Well, there goes brushing my teeth!
So, I gagged yesterday while brushing my teeth 
What's the solution here? To let my teeth rot for the next 9 months?

I gag all of the time when brushing my teeth and I am 11 weeks. I just do the best I can.

I had this for a few days in the beginning. Fortunately, it does go away!

Re: Well, there goes brushing my teeth!
this happened to me big time last pregnancy. i just stuck it out and continued to brush (and gag ).
this time it's the minty taste of the toothpaste that is making my stomach turn i'm going to need to experiment with different flavors

not really a big deal, I think it happened to most of us.
just one more thing to suck up during pregnancy

Re: Well, there goes brushing my teeth!
I gagged terribly when brushing.
My best friend who is a hygientist suggested using a smaller/baby toothbrush for awhile...and to go easy when you are on your back teeth until it gets better....still keep up with flossing but do the best you can...
It gets better!

Re: Well, there goes brushing my teeth!
I have been gagging while brushing my teeth, or if something smells gross, sounds gross, looks gross.....there has been a lot of gagging going on. It started 3 days before I found out I was pregnant.

Re: Well, there goes brushing my teeth!
Yeah...I had this well into my 2nd trimester. It was so bad that I had a daily routine: Get out of the shower, brush teeth, gag, throw up, brush teeth again.
Just leave yourself a few extra minutes

Get back on Zofran! You told me about that miracle drug back in the day
I gagged until I got on Zofran. Took those puppies up until a month before I delivered!

Re: Well, there goes brushing my teeth!
I gagged while brushing my teeth for my entire pregnancy. It wasn't fun but it gets a little better after the first trimester.
