getting sick from brushing teeth

So I'm 15 weeks pregnant and I'm well over my morning sickness but a couple of times I've threw up right after brushing my teeth, and its like not just once but everything in my stomch until I can't puke anymore. Has anyone else delt with this?

It's very normal. It is a part of morning sickness too I think. Some women get morning sickness all through their pregnancy. Plus being pregnant makes you have an extra sensitive gag reflex. Just make sure you give yourself time to brush your teeth and try not to hit that gag reflex.

All 3 of my pregnancies I got sick from brushing my teeth. I would get so mad because I felt like I had to brush them again after I got sick but I would get sick again. I think its normal

try switching toothpaste flavors or brands, and use bottled water to rinse your mouth out....sometimes something as small as those changes can help.

Sorry ladies what a rough sensitivity to have, I hope you guys find a solution!

Well I am in my second trimester. And this just started, it scared my bf he came running in the first time it happened and was like what's going on I thought the ms was over, I said yeah me to. But I felt it was because of brushing my teeth and gagging, it just caused me to puke everything up :/ Haha and its not everyday either its like once a week or less.
