Pregnancy symptom?

I'm 24 weeks pregnant and for awhile I have been experiencing dry mouth, is this a pregnancy symptom? How do I get rid of it, I'm not dehydrated, I drink plenty of fluids.

I have horrible dry mouth, I have since about 20weeks, I have no idea why, my doctor says its just one of those weird pregnancy things. Try sucking on some  type of sour hard candy, I find it makes my mouth water, so it helps with the dry mouth, I would mention it to your doctor, just in case. Best of luck, congratulations on your pregnancy!

Thanks for your reply and yeah it's true everyone is different and every symptom and pregnancy is different but I don't see my OBGYN until the end of the month, I'll tough it out till then.

What is normal for one person is not normal for another. Symptoms or lack of symptoms are irrelevant in pregnancy because it is just so different for each person. Just to be sure I'd mention it to your doctor. It doesn't sound like a very pleasant thing to experience! Maybe they'll have some tips for you.
