Q: Brushing Teeth

How many of you are finding that since you got pregnant, that brushing your teeth (especially the back ones) makes you gag.
It takes me like 15 mins jus to brush my teeth now, cuz I have to keep stopping, to heave then hold the brush against my teeth with my tongue while I brush so it doesn't make me gag as badly. Crying or Very sad
