ha! As a matter of fact I can completely relate. I was brushing my teeth this morning and I had to stop in the middle of it and throw up. I am 11 weeks pregnant and everytime I brush my teeth I throw up. I have started taking a can of soda into the bathroom with me to help with the vomiting...it calms my stomach... Just another cute symptom of pregnancy

When I was pregnant I couldn't even look at the toothbrush without gagging. It never failed, as soon as I would brush my teeth I would puke and have to rebrush them. Hang in there, it's worth it in the long run

What you could have is a phobia induced by a bad experience with hygiene.
although I do not have my PH. D., I know about your case. Remember times when you've eaten something and that night you get quite ill? Even if that particular meal has never brought you any trouble? and then after that spell you tend to avoid the food. the same case of conditioning might explain why you do not like brushing into your pregnancy. ask you self if there have been any problems concerning your hygiene practices and your pregnancy. consulting a doctor is a good measure.

Every time I go to brush my teeth I wanna get sick to, and I am 37 weeks pregnant. I think it is the thought of the mint toothpaste for me. I have tried all kinds of toothpastes, even my sons. But it doesn't help.

Yup! I cant stand the sound of toothbrushes on my teeth or anyone elses for that matter ,but when I was pregnant it would also make me throw up....just one of those things - the joy of pregnancy lol

my mom told me that she had this one too.. And she said that, this usually happens if you are carrying a boy.
