Thank you for the reply apparently one has to be at least 12 wks along before they will pull it but I am on antibiotics so all will work out.

If you *don't* have it pulled, it could effect the baby.  Tell them you are pregnant, and go from there.  You don't want infection from the tooth in your system when you are pregnant.
