Anyone end up with really bad teeth after pregnancy?

I have had a lot of problems with my teeth my whole life really but, when I got pregnant with my first my gums bled so bad and my teeth and gums hurt all the time. Then it got a little better then I had my second and same happened. I know I have some gum problems but, now that I am pregnant with my 3rd its starting again they hurt sooo bad! Should I go to the dentist? Are they able to do anything while you are pregnant or do I have to wait? Also, when I brush they bleed A LOT!!

    Yes, there is a connection to hormone changes and your gums bleeding. If you will type "dental health and pregnancy" into your web browser, and look at the Web MD article I think you will find each answer that you are seeking. I had an aunt that had to get dentures after her second child, but that was a number of years ago. The Web MD site is very easy reading and not long, but you will learn about all questions you asked. That includes your question about going to the dentist. Good luck, and may you get some relief soon.
