Not me - but I have heard of it. I think its sort-of common... Not sure what to tell you to do though... Maybe give the dentist a ring, explain, and see if they have any recommendations?

I have had problems with bleeding gums slightly sensitive. When your pregnant your gums swell due to the extra blood and are more prone to bleed. Its pretty common amongst us pregnant women lol. I have found with regular brushing it does ease off on the amount of blood.

Hi yes I have this too. I brush twice a day, floss and use mouth wash. Dentist recommended corsodrol but I don't use it all the time as it can stain your teeth, it works when I'm using it but when I stop they bleed again. Try not too brush too hard. Going back to dentist for scale and polish might help too.

switching my toothbrush helped a lot and I also started to drink a ton more milk I mean 3-4 pints a day and it has helped don't know if it's related though. My teeth were hurting really really bad and it has seemed to have stopped so....
