bleeding gums??

[Epower85]

Hi ladies, I am almost 24 weeks and expecting a baby boy on the 3rd July :-D as much as I am enjoying the feeling of my baby boy moving around, almost as soon as I found out I was expecting a bubba, my gums have been bleeding. And its just getting worse because I am now waking up with blood in my gums every morning and its disgusting :O is anyone else experiencing the same problem? Any tips on how to prevent this?  I am brushing my teeth morning and night and using a really good mouth wash but nothing is working! xx

Flossing may help!

I am 22 weeks today and have been having bleeding gums as well. Brushing day & night. We aren't finding out the sex of baby....

Which tooth paste did you change to? Listerine total (also a gum protector) is the mouthwash I'm using atm. And an advance whitening toothpaste by colgate. I'm having dreams where my teeth have fallen out, its horrible :O lol I know it is one of the symptoms of pregnancy but I just wanna try and reduce it if I can x

My gums bled with my first pregnancy and my doctor said I needed more calcium.

I am also due with a boy in July 3rd! My gums bleed some... I changed toothpaste and that seemed to help... also using listerine seems to help cut down the bleeding
