Question:
WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU CONSTANTLY HAVE A NASTY TASTE IN YOUR MOUTH THAT MAKES YOU WANT TO SPIT ALL THE TIME...I ACTUALLY WOULD DESCRIBE AS A WATERY MOUTH???? I AM GOING INSANE!
Answer:
No you are not insane! This is quite common and women are advised not to swallow excessive saliva as
this can increase the symptoms of NVP. Spitting out the saliva and frequent mouthwashes or sucking on a
candy can be helpful.
