Nasty taste in the mouth -- blech!

Starting to notice something new over the last few days. Perpetual dry mouth, but with this yucky metal taste like a soda can. Thought it might be dehydration but upping my water intake doesn't seem to help. Listerine works for about 5 minutes then back to the yuck factor. Any way to get rid of this?

Hi there

sorry you are going to have this throughout the whole pregnancy. This is probably why people get weird cravings.  I used to find eating mint choc chip ice cream worked for a while. My mum used to suck orange and lemon flavoured sweets everyone is different you will find something that works for you but forget the listerine lol

If you like it, ginger chews work for me. I find mints work as well, but not as well.
