Omg worst pain ever. Take a cotton swab/ball put some vanilla extract on it and hold it where the pain is. Works wonders!!!! Do not swallow spit!

Mine were the same at 11 weeks. I got a cleaning, brush the times a day, floss and I rinse with a natural mouth wash and grapefruit seed extract. I haven't had a problem since!! Good luck!!

Yes!  This whole pregnancy I can't brush my teeth without bleeding like crazy, as long as they don't get infected you should be ok although I know it's extremely annoying!

Yes me! I was told use soft toothbrush and sensodine toothpaste by my dentist. I'm really bad at remembering to floss but when I do it everyday for a week or something I also notice a huge difference

Oh yes...i had that from the beginning until now! Im currently 36weeks..the best advice is to get the ok from your doctor to go see a dentist. Then they can do a routine cleaning and let you know what you can do to relieve the pain in your gums and help you so you wont develop prenancy gingivitis...using a soft toothbrush usually helps...
