smelly breath..

Anyones boyfriend has "smelly breath" to you and it makes it hard to be close to them without gagging? I never had this problem before I was pregnant. It just recently got to me..

I also wish I could replace my pregnancy nose :( Everything bothers me now,  my husband's breath, when he gets home from work all I can smell is his sweat and I even have to febreeze his clothes because it makes our room stink. Never bothered me before and hes not a dirty man. Sigh,  I haye having to tell him but when it almost makes me vomit I dont have a choice.

Lmao, I'm glad I'm not alone. My boyfriend's breath doesn't even really stink, it's just his natural scent that I can't smell. I tell him all the time his breath smells like metal to me and I don't kiss him. He sleeps with his mouth open too and it drives me crazy!!!!

my husband can wake me up from a dead sleep in the middle of the night because he'll turn over and his breath is so nasty it wakes me up. I have told him so many times before...it doesn't help that he wasn't raised brushing his teeth often. he was raised by his grandparents who had dentures and gets cavities all the time. it's not like I carry a toothbrush with me all the time, but the only time I even thought I had a cavity my dentist informed me that I had brushed so hard I exposed the nerve...
anyway, I've tried subtly hinting and joking, but now I straight up tell him that he won't get any kisses from me if he.doesn't brush his teeth

I'll tell my fiancé quick. Especially if he has had a beer or 2 I can't stand kissing him when his breath smells like alcohol and cigerettes.

If you're having a baby with the guy, the least you could do is tell him he has stinky breath! I tell my fiance straight up when his mouth is stinky. I'd rather that then get sick from kissing. We have that kind of relationship though. Open and blunt haha. But that's why we work :) My advice is to just tell him mommas. You'd want him to tell you if your breath stunk right?

This is so funny because I have the SAME EXACT problem! It's only worse becsuse I hate having sex now. My boyfriend is a smoker and before I found out I was pregnant I was too, so breath was never a problem. Now... OMG! After he smokes, I tell him to get out my face & dont plan on gettin in my face, but I always make it a joke. He brushes his teeth and uses mouth wash daily, so I know the problem is really with me. I'm just ready to be back to normal, I don't like hurting his feelings and tellin him no :( *wwwwaaaaaaaaaaaa*

My hubby dips so his breathe smells like rotten icy hot, i tell him to brush his teeth and he does before he kisses me, we are "too comfortable"with each other though.  Like when I'm pooping ill leave the door open so i can talk to him & he does the same so telling him his breath sinks Is no biggy lol :)

I started to but I just can't. It doesn't help that he smokes.. But even before a cig. Like I cant deal with it. He always wants to french kiss and I cant handle that even though I want to. Also I've tried having him chew gum which kinda helps but not enough. I've even been kinda playful and I'll stick a hard candy in my mouth (for nausea) and then push it into his and it still doesn't help. I just don't want hurt his feelings.
