I went through the same thing! it made me so nauseous. my Dr said she had the same thing as well during her pregnancy and she said jolly ranchers helped her because it was sour. I tried it and it helped me somewhat. mine got better once the nausea went away after the first trimester. good luck!

Hi!
If you were my patient, I would advise you that the first thing to do may be to go to see your dentist to be certain that there isn't any decay or other problems in your mouth causing your symptoms.  Other things that could be causing the bad taste might be sinus drainage or excess stomach acid.
You could try an antacid such as TUMS to see if it helps.
Your dentist may have the best advise for you!
Good luck!
