Its normal during pregnancy. My sister and I were pregnant at the same time. I had problems with mine and she didnt. It is different from person to person.

My gums are bleeding when I use floss. It's irritating to feel the taste of blood in the mouth, but I guess this is a small inconvenient:)

Mine did.  Use a sensitive tooth paste. I used Colgate Sensitive,  but Sensodyne is also good.  It made a huge difference for me.

Switch your toothbrush, I switched mine at every trimester I use the softest one and it's helped.
