Nausea while brushing teeth

Hi mums, I am currently 11 weeks and since last week brushing teeth triggers really bad nausea for me, this morning it was so bad I actually vomited. Now I really dread brushing every morning and night :( Anyone here has similar experience and can share some tips? TIA.

happened to me too! unfortunately I can't give any advice on how to make it better, but it got better for me from 17 weeks onwards

I thought I was the only one! I’m at week 9 now and today it was so bad I actually vomited too. Feeling you mommy ☹️

week33, tried many toothpaste, nothing works for me. I just counting down to the day I can slowly brush my teeth again.

I have the same issue. Kid's Colgate bubble gum flavour seems to work on me. so much less gagging and love the smell

Use fluoride free toothpaste and mouthwash!! It could be the toothpaste and not the act of brushing teeth

I switched to fluoride free toothpaste and mouthwash and it works. Both from Mama’s Choice.

I changed my toothpaste to non-minty ones and it helped :)

It turns better for me while I am at week 18.
