First time mom in need of advice

Hello , im 20 years old and me and my husband are 15 weeks pregnant with our first baby and I was wondering if any of you ever had really sensitive teeth with your pregnancies? I've been bruching twice a day and using mouth wash once a day and flossing onece a day but just this week and especially since yesterday my bottom teeth have been so sensitive and they hurt even if I breathe through my mouth, drink water with no ice or anything too hot or cold. Is this normal?is it something I can take care of on my own?  My next doctors appointment is this coming Thursday and I'm going to mention it but I just wanted to know if anyone else has ever experienced it.

Thanks so much ladies! God bless yall!

I'm 20 and I'm 24 weeks pregnant and my teeth are so sore and bleeding all the time. I've been brushing with a soft toothbrush and sensitive toothpaste since I was 16 weeks and it's not getting any better. I also brush my teeth after every meal I have. I've been told by many women it's normal.

Your gums are a lot more sensitive during pregnancy. Sounds normal to me, but I would bring it up anyways and see what they say. Sounds like you take good care of your teeth! But mine haven't ever been that sensitive. Everyone's different though.
