Water, chewing gum, popsicles... thats about all I can suggest lol. Ive been having the dry mouth/nasty taste since halfway through my first trimester. Sour candy helps too. Gets those saliva glands working big time. Oddly enough it helps when sick and your glands are swollen lol

If your lips are dry that is one of the first signs of dehydration...try drinking water to help with that :)

First trimester I constantly had to spit because I was so nauseous my salvary glands were on over drive! This trimester is the exact opposite, im always sucking on peppermint sticks or  popsicles. Chewing gum helps too
