Yes... I had gingivitiS .... it just got better for me they say your gums are weaker while your pregnant because your increase in blood flow.... so i had to brush 2 a day floss and mouth wash I was told to use prohealth mouth wash and ever since I really havent had bloody gums

Completely normal. This and nose bleeds because the increased blood flow. One of those fun little pregnancy symptoms not many know about.
