Whats up with my teeth???

Hey ladies! I'm having an issue with my teeth. I read that pregnancy really takes a toll on your teeth but my teeth have always been very strong & super white without teeth whiteners but they look kinda like a dull now & more of a stained look to them. Has Anybody else experienced any major teeth changes & if so what were they & what did u do about it? I scheduled a dentist appointment but until then any advice or info. on this problem? Thank you ladies!!!

I have the same thing happening to me. My gums actually bleed when I suck on my teeth. It's really grossm I heard that the best thing to do is just drink milk like usual. It should help strength then back to how they used to be.

OK thank you! I don't take any calcium supplement & tbh I barely drink milk or anything so maybe that's the problem! I'm gonna call my baby doc today & see what I can take! Ty (:

So far I managed to avoid any issues with my teeth (almost week 38) - it may be thanks to the extra high doses of calcium and D3 supplements I've been taking from before pregnancy. I've also had little to no leg cramps in my legs for the same reason. My dr said that the only side effect these supplements might have on the baby is that he'll have stronger bones.

Ive suffered with my teeth right from the outset. Its because your gums are softer due to pregnancy....should go back to normal after your hormones settle :)
