swollen gums
Anyone know if there is anything u can take for swollen and soar gums? Ever since 12 weeks hit my gums are soo swollen. My two front teeth have issues to begin with but in the morning they hurt so bad from the swelling of my gums I just want to rip them out.. lol
Is there anything I can do to help the swelling?

Re: swollen gums
Nope, it's pregnancy gingivitis and you'll likely have it your entire pregnancy. Keep brushing and flossing, despite the discomfort and probably bleeding. And get a cleaning at the dentist. It'll go away when you give birth.

Re: swollen gums
you can go to the dentist and they can give you a good cleaning. but its 100% pregnancy related. My friend is a dentist recommends going a few times during pregnancy. last time for me I had no issues but this time I do have some teeth pain.
Feel better

Re: swollen gums
I had terrible teeth/gum issues when I was pregnant. The dentist always told me to rinse with warm water with a teaspoon of salt added to it.

This was one of my first symptoms of pregnancy, even before I got a BFP! Flossing daily and Listerine have been helping.
