funny taste?

I am about 4 or 5 weeks according to the doc and this morning I woke up with a funny taste in my mouth. it taste like it does after you accidently bit your lip and the blood is in your mouth. I know but it is hard to explain, it is kind of a metallic taste I guess. Does anyone else know what I am talking about?

It's just from the extra hormones, although gum swelling is a common symptom also so if your gums are swollen it's entirely possible that there actually is a little bit of blood in your mouth. But if to youre positive there is no blood it's just from the hormones. Try brushing your teeth really well, and if that doesn't take the taste away some gum or hard candy should mask the taste

Thank you ladies. I feel better knowing that I am not the only one. This is my first so I am going to be a nervous wreck everytime something new happens.

Yup , I don't remember what causes it but I had it also. It should go away but sometimes it comes back, I'm 36w and get an odd taste in the back of my throat sometimes
