what can i use

I think my wisdom tooth is coming in, and its so painful. Can i use ambasol ( i think that what its called) or some kind of pain relieving gel. I took some tylenol, but it still hurts. Its hard to eat, and i afraid if i don't chew my food properly my baby will not be able to eat, because the pieces are too big( she does eat whatever i eat right?) I know i sound so stupid right now but i get worried about everything.

I'm not sure about the ambasol. Maybe read the label. Also, you can not worry about how you chew your food. If that were the case, my baby would be malnurished because I seem to be just shoveling it in and not even bothering with the chewing Seriously though, it is the nutrients that the baby gets, not the actual particals of food.

If it is bothering you this much, I suggest you speak to your OB. Perhaps there is a way to get your wisdom tooth pulled while you are preggo. Perhaps there is an anasthetic that is safe or safer that they use for pregnant people.

I know i laughed at the chewing part.My husband thinks i'm crazy. When i had a bad cold last week i asked him if he thought the baby had a cold too. Hopefully i can get this thing pulled, its so painful.
