Monday I woke up and when I brushed my teeth, my gums started bleeding like crazy. Not normal. And only around the teeth on the sides of my mouth, not my front 4 bottom and top teeth??? It hurts!!! And I thought if your gums bleed you need to brush more, so since then I have been brushing, gargling with saltwater & hydrogren peroxide. They are still bleeding and are so sore and achy now it hurts to brush, but I'm trying to keep them clean, so what can I do?? Sunday I was fine. How would this happen all of the sudden??

You might have a bad tooth and not know it. See a dentist. Your teeth can also bleed from brushing to hard.

well not sure how old you are but could you be pregnant.
it is very common for someone who is pregnant to have inflamed gums and spontanious bleeding no matter how much you brush.
have it checked.if negative on test please go and seek help from a dentist or your family doctor.
are you also on any blood thinners or are you taking any herbal remedies some of them can cause a blood thinner effect.

probably not what's wrong with you but Radiation poisoning causes this...
Unless you work in a nuke plant or are an Xray tech or someone that is around radiation...then that leaves that out.
actually it sounds like you could have impacted wisdom teeth coming in
